Abstract excerpt
Oxidative phosphorylation and substrate level phosphorylation catalyzed by succinyl-CoA synthetase found in the citric acid and the acetate:succinate CoA transferase/succinyl-CoA synthetase cycle contribute to mitochondrial ATP synthesis in procyclic Trypanosoma brucei. The latter pathway is specific for trypanosome but also found in hydrogenosomes. In organello ATP production was studied in wild-type and in RNA...
