Trypanosome glucose transporters
Molecular and Biochemical Parasitology, 1998, by contrast adopts an intracellularenvironment within their mammalian hosts. Inva-sion and passage through different anatomicallocations within insect vectors also distinguishesthe parasites.All trypanosome species use glucose as a crucialsource of energy, and all have specific plasmamembrane transporters to facilitate the uptake ofthis molecule.

The African trypanosome genome
International Journal for Parasitology, 2000The haploid nuclear genome of the African trypanosome, Trypanosoma brucei, is about 35 Mb and varies in size among different trypanosome isolates by as much as 25%. The nuclear DNA of this diploid organism is distributed among three size classes of chromosomes: the megabase chromosomes of which there are at least 11 pairs ranging from 1 Mb to more than

1999
Abstract As mentioned, the trypanosomes are closely related to the leishmaniae, and their zoologic classification follows the same lines (see Chapter 4; Corliss, 1994). Trypanosomes are known in general as the blood flagellates, and under natural conditions they occur in humans and many other species of animals.

Cultivation of Mammalian Trypanosomes*
The Journal of Protozoology, 1964SYNOPSIS. Cultivation of the mammalian trypanosomes can be accomplished in the following artificial environments: monophasic and diphasic blood agar, dialysate, undefined, and partially defined liquid media, semisolid media, avian embryos, and tissue cultures.

Infecting Triatomines with Trypanosomes
2020The infection of triatomines with trypanosomes can be performed with different forms of the parasite, and the procedure is important not only for vector-parasite interaction studies but also for maintaining the infectivity of parasite strains, which guarantees more realistic biological and molecular investigations.

Deformation of erythrocytes by trypanosomes
Experimental Cell Research, 1965The movements of Trypanosoma brucei are briefly described. The deformation of mouse erythrocytes by this organism is illustrated and the magnitude of the deforming force calculated.

Antigenic variation in trypanosomes
Nature, 1978In its mammalian host, Trypanosoma brucei is able to change the antigenic character of its glycoprotein surface coat and so evade the host's immune response. This phenotypic change seems to occur spontaneously in 1 in 10,000 individuals but is not due to genetic mutation: host antibody is not necessary for its induction but plays a selective part in ...

Antigens of African Trypanosomes
1985The African trypanosomes present their hosts with the best characterised antigens in parasitology — the variant surface glycoproteins, or VSGs. The structure of the genes encoding VSGs and the mechanism by which the expression of these genes is regulated have been studied intensively (reviewed in Steinert and Pays 1985). Research in this area is at the
