SUMMARYAfrican trypanosomes have emerged as promising unicellular model organisms for the next generation of systems biology. They offer unique advantages, due to their relative simplicity, the availability of all standard genomics techniques and a long history of quantitative research.

African trypanosomes cause human African trypanosomiasis and animal African trypanosomiasis. They are transmitted by tsetse flies in sub-Saharan Africa. Although most famous for their mechanisms of immune evasion by antigenic variation, there have been recent important studies that illuminate important aspects of the biology of these parasites both in ...

Barcoding in trypanosomes [PDF]
SUMMARYTrypanosomes (genus Trypanosoma) are parasites of humans, and wild and domestic mammals, in which they cause several economically and socially important diseases, including sleeping sickness in Africa and Chagas disease in the Americas. Despite the development of numerous molecular diagnostics and increasing awareness of the importance of these ...

The trypanosome flagellum [PDF]
African Trypanosomes are flagellated protozoan parasites that cause sleeping sickness in humans and Nagana in cattle. During its life cycle, Trypanosoma brucei alternates between an insect vector (tsetse fly) and a mammalian host.

In a previous paper on Bird Trypanosomes it was pointed out that these organisms grew readily in the test-tube on blood agar and that the resulting forms resembled the flagellates which Schaudinn found in the gut of mosquitoes which had fed on owls infected with Halteridium and with H. Ziemanni.

The Flagellum of Trypanosomes [PDF]
Eukaryotic cilia and flagella are cytoskeletal organelles that are remarkably conserved from protists to mammals. Their basic unit is the axoneme, a well-defined cylindrical structure composed of microtubules and up to 250 associated proteins. These complex organelles are assembled by a dynamic process called intraflagellar transport.

Counterflow dielectrophoresis for trypanosome enrichment and detection in blood [PDF]
Human African trypanosomiasis or sleeping sickness is a deadly disease endemic in sub-Saharan Africa, caused by single-celled protozoan parasites. Although it has been targeted for elimination by 2020, this will only be realized if diagnosis can be ...
