Untangling Inositol (Pyro)Phosphate Biology Through Emerging Technologies
Inositol (pyro)phosphates represent a vital class of intracellular messengers that govern multiple biological processes. The last decade has experienced a surge of interest in the functions of this class of signaling molecules, primarily due to the introduction of several innovative analytical technologies.

A histone methyltransferase modulates antigenic variation in African trypanosomes [PDF]
To evade the host immune system, several pathogens periodically change their cell-surface epitopes. In the African trypanosomes, antigenic variation is achieved by tightly regulating the expression of a multigene family encoding a large repertoire of ...

Host Call Frequency Drives Attractiveness to an Eavesdropping Micropredator
Acoustic sexual signals are vulnerable to interception by eavesdropping unintended receivers, and signals are thus influenced by interacting selection pressures. Frequencies of 0.5–1.4 kHz attracted frog‐biting midges (Corethrella spp.) and closely matched the lowest‐calling local frog species.

Trypanosoma cruzi and Trypanosoma rangeli are human-infective blood parasites, largely restricted to Central and South America. They also infect a wide range of wild and domestic mammals and are transmitted by a numerous species of triatomine bugs. There

Trypanosome motion represents an adaptation to the crowded environment of the vertebrate bloodstream [PDF]
Blood is a remarkable habitat: it is highly viscous, contains a dense packaging of cells and perpetually flows at velocities varying over three orders of magnitude. Only few pathogens endure the harsh physical conditions within the vertebrate bloodstream

An integrated computational‐experimental workflow enabled CRK12‐guided hit discovery against Trypanosoma brucei under limited structural and ligand data. The workflow of virtual screening and anti‐T. brucei bioassays identified 4 hit compounds, including three low‐micromolar leads (IC50 = 1.47, 0.81, and 1.33 μM). ABSTRACT Human African trypanosomiasis

Disturbances in biological rhythms pose a major disease problem, not the least in the aging population. Experimental sleeping sickness, caused by Trypanosoma brucei brucei, in rats constitutes a unique and robust chronic model for studying mechanisms of ...
