Stage-specific function of sphingolipid synthases in African trypanosomes

open access: yesmBio
The protozoan parasite Trypanosoma brucei is the only known eukaryote capable of synthesizing the three main phosphosphingolipids: sphingomyelin (SM), inositol phosphorylceramide (IPC), and ethanolamine phosphorylceramide (EPC).

Identification of a small RNA containing the trypanosome spliced leader: a donor of shared 5' sequences of trypanosomatid mRNAs? [PDF]

open access: yes, 1984
The 35 nucleotide spliced leader (SL) sequence is found on the 5' end of numerous trypanosome mRNAs, yet the tandemly organized reiteration units encoding this leader are not detectably linked to any of these structural genes. Here we report the presence

Insight into the exoproteome of the tissue-derived trypomastigote form of Trypanosoma cruzi

open access: yesFrontiers in Chemistry, 2016
The protozoan parasite Trypanosoma cruzi causes Chagas disease, one of the major neglected infectious diseases. It has the potential to infect any nucleated mammalian cell. The secreted/excreted protein repertoire released by T.

The developmental cell biology of Trypanosoma brucei [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Trypanosoma brucei provides an excellent system for studies of many aspects of cell biology, including cell structure and morphology, organelle positioning, cell division and protein trafficking. However, the trypanosome has a complex life cycle in which

Réponse du poulet nigérian local ( Gallus domesticus) aux trypanosomes

open access: yesRevue d’Elevage et de Médecine Vétérinaire des Pays Tropicaux, 1988
La réponse du poulet nigérian local aux souches de Trypanosoma brucei 8/18 et T. vivax Y58 a été recherchée. Le poulet local utilisé dans cette étude était sensible à T. brucei mais réfractaire à T. vivax (Y58) (une souche adaptée aux rongeurs).

Rab23 is a flagellar protein in Trypanosoma brucei

open access: yesBMC Research Notes, 2011
Background Rab small GTPases are important mediators of membrane transport, and orthologues frequently retain similar locations and functions, even between highly divergent taxa.

Experimental evaluation of xenodiagnosis to detect trypanosomes at low parasitaemia levels in infected hosts

open access: yesParasite, 2011
In Human African Trypanosomosis (HAT) endemic areas, there are a number of subjects that are positive to serological tests but in whom trypanosomes are difficult to detect with the available parasitological tests.

Evolutionary diversification of the trypanosome haptoglobin-haemoglobin receptor from an ancestral haemoglobin receptor

open access: yeseLife, 2016
The haptoglobin-haemoglobin receptor of the African trypanosome species, Trypanosoma brucei, is expressed when the parasite is in the bloodstream of the mammalian host, allowing it to acquire haem through the uptake of haptoglobin-haemoglobin complexes ...

tRNA Biology in Trypanosomes

open access: yesCHIMIA, 2019
Besides their medical importance, the parasitic protozoan Trypanosoma brucei and its relatives are experimentally highly accessible model systems for many cell biological processes. Trypanosomes are phylogenetically essentially unrelated to the popular model eukaryotes, such as yeast and animals, and thus show several unique features, many of
