Dictyocaulus viviparus causes a serious lung disease of cattle. Similar to other parasitic nematodes, D. viviparus possesses several acetylcholinesterase (AChE) genes, one of which encodes a putative neuromuscular AChE, which contains a try...

Metabolomics aims to measure all low molecular weight chemicals within a given system in a manner analogous to transcriptomics, proteomics and genomics. In this review we highlight metabolomics approaches that are currently being applied to...

Kinetoplastids, including the human pathogens Trypanosoma brucei, Trypanosoma cruzi and Leishmania, are the only known organisms that do not regulate the transcription of protein coding genes transcribed by RNA polymerase II. Yet, profound ...

The presence of xylose and galactose residues in the structure of trichomonad lipoglycans was indicated by previous studies and the modification of any glycoconjugate with either monosaccharide requires the respective presence of the nucleo...
Expression differential of microsomal and cytosolic glutathione-S-transferases in Fasciola hepatica resistant at triclabendazole [0.03%]

In the present work, we evaluate in vitro the cytosolic and microsomal activity of glutathione-S-transferases in adults of Fasciola hepatica susceptible (Cullompton Strain) and resistant (Sligo Strain) to triclabendazole. The triclabendazol...
A novel Entamoeba histolytica inositol phosphate kinase catalyzes the formation of 5PP-Ins(1,2,3,4,6)P(5) [0.03%]

The parasitic protozoan Entamoeba histolytica is able to invade human tissues by secreting proteolytic enzymes. This secretion is regulated by inositol phosphate-mediated Ca(2+) release from internal stores. To further investigate the inosi...

Regarded as the circadian hormone in mammals, melatonin is a highly conserved molecule, present in nearly all species. In this review, we discuss the role of this indolamine and its precursors in the cell biology of parasites and the role o...
Development of an efficient in vitro transcription system for bloodstream form Trypanosoma brucei reveals life cycle-independent functionality of class I transcription factor A [0.03%]

Trypanosomatid parasites possess extremely divergent transcription factors whose identification typically relied on biochemical, structural and functional analyses because they could not be identified by standard sequence analysis. For exam...
