Characterization of Trypanosoma evansi type B
A distinctive feature of Trypanosoma evansi is the possession of a kinetoplast that contains homogeneous DNA minicircles, but lacks DNA maxicircles. Two major sequence variants of the minicircle have been described and here we have sequenced the type B variant and designed a specific PCR test to distinguish it from type A.

The detection of non-RoTat 1.2 Trypanosoma evansi [PDF]
The majority of Trypanosoma evansi can be detected using diagnostic tests based on the variant surface glycoprotein (VSG) of Trypanosoma evansi Rode Trypanozoon antigen type (RoTat) 1.2. Exceptions are a number of T. evansi isolated in Kenya. To characterize T. evansi that are undetected by RoTat 1.2, we cloned and sequenced the VSG cDNA from T. evansi

Diagnosis of Trypanosoma evansi in bovines by indirect ELISA [PDF]
The diagnosis of Trypanosoma evansi in animals with low parasitaemia is hampered by low diagnostic sensitivity of traditional detection methods. The present study was undertaken with an objective to improve the diagnostic tools for detection of antibodies against T.

Equine trypanosomiasis, a systematic review: Disease management
Abstract Background Equine trypanosomiasis is a neglected protozoal disease. Objectives To answer the study question: In equines what are the effects of disease management of trypanosomiasis on disease severity (individual level) and disease prevalence (population level) compared to no intervention? Study Design Systematic review.

Properties of Soluble Antigen of Trypanosoma evansi [PDF]
Plasma of rats infected with Trypanosoma evansi contained soluble antigen detected by the agar diffusion method. The antigen protected mice against homologous challenge but was not agglutinogenic. Whether the two properties were due to one or two antigens, respectively, was not ascertained.

U‐indel RNA editing targets mRNA:gRNA duplexes through three key complexes that collectively govern assembly, specificity, catalysis, and developmental regulation. Modern tools, including artificial intelligence, analyze the organization, dynamics, and evolution of the remarkable holo‐editosome, opening new avenues in RNA biology and therapy.

Equine trypanosomiasis, a systematic review and meta‐analyses: Prevalence, morbidity and mortality
Abstract Background Equine trypanosomiasis is a neglected protozoal disease. Objectives To perform a systematic search of literature to explore: (1) In equines what is the global geographical distribution and prevalence of trypanosomiasis? In low and middle‐income countries (LMICs) is trypanosomiasis more prevalent than in higher‐income countries (HICs)

Protein import into mitochondria relies on TIM complexes and the membrane potential. Trypanosoma brucei has a unique TIM complex, and the role of one subunit, TbTim20, has remained unclear. Here, we show that TbTim20 is essential in cells lacking mitochondrial DNA. The importance of TbTim20 increases as the membrane potential decreases.
