G Protein-Coupled Receptors as Potential Intercellular Communication Mediators in Trypanosomatidae
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2022 Detection and transduction of environmental signals, constitute a prerequisite for successful parasite invasion; i.e., Leishmania transmission, survival, pathogenesis and disease manifestation and dissemination, with diverse molecules functioning as ...

Control of gene expression in Trypanosomatidae [PDF]
Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 1998 The study of mechanisms which control gene expression in trypanosomatids has developed at an increasing rate since 1989 when the first successful DNA transfection experiments were reported.

Trypanosomatidae codon usage and GC distribution
Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 1992 A study od Typanosomatidae GC distribution and codon usage is presented. The codon usage patterns in coincidence with the phylogenetical data are similar in Crithidia and Leishmania, whereas they are more divergent in Trypanosoma brucei and T. cruzi. The

A Stroll Through the History of Monoxenous Trypanosomatids Infection in Vertebrate Hosts
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2022 The Trypanosomatidae family encompasses unicellular flagellates and obligate parasites of invertebrates, vertebrates, and plants. Trypanosomatids are traditionally divided into heteroxenous, characterized by the alternation of the life cycle between an ...

Roles of ADP-Ribosylation during Infection Establishment by Trypanosomatidae Parasites
Pathogens, 2023 ADP-ribosylation is a reversible post-translational protein modification, which is evolutionarily conserved in prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms.

Endosymbiosis in protozoa of the Trypanosomatidae family [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Letters, 1999 A small number of trypanosomatids present bacterium endosymbionts in the cytoplasm, which divide synchronously with the host cell. Crithidia oncopleti, Crithidia deanei. Crithidia desouzai, Blastocrithidia culicis and Herpetomonas roitmani are the best characterized species.

Advances in Leishmania Research: From Basic Parasite Biology to Disease Control
Microorganisms, 2023 The genus Leishmania (Trypanosomatida: Trypanosomatidae) currently comprises just over 50 species, of which about 20 cause several syndromes in humans, collectively known as leishmaniasis or “leishmaniases” [...]
