" Metabolic pathways are boring!" The attitude implicit in this assertion is not uncommon, and
probably arises because pathways are frequently considered to be uninteresting collections …

Protozoan Kinetoplastida, including the pathogenic trypanosomatids of the genera
Trypanosoma and Leishmania, compartmentalize several important metabolic systems in …

The protozoan hemoflagellates belonging to the order Kinetoplastida, which comprise the
genera Trypanosoma and Leishmania, are the causative agents of a number of important …

There are only a handful of drugs available today for treating African trypanosomiasis, most
of which were discovered more than forty years ago. These drugs are plagued by various …

We have developed a method for the simultaneous purification of hexokinase,
glucosephosphate isomerase, phosphofructokinase, fructose‐1, 6‐bisphosphate aldolase …

In total, 37080 protein sequences of the three trypanosomatids Leishmania major,
Trypanosoma brucei and Trypanosoma cruzi, were used to predict the trypanosomatid …

Peroxisomes are present in nearly every eukaryotic cell and compartmentalize a wide range
of important metabolic processes. Glycosomes of Kinetoplastid parasites are peroxisome …

This review focuses on a particular type of organelle, the microbody. Since its discovery,
about four decades ago, it has become clear that it is involved in a variety ofmetabolic …

Maturation of mRNA precursors in trypanosomes involves an apparent trans splicing event
in which a 39-nucleotide miniexon sequence, common to all trypanosome mRNAs, is joined …

Most peroxisomal matrix proteins contain a carboxyl-terminal tripeptide that directs them to
peroxisomes. Within limits, these amino acids may be varied, without loss of function. The …
