Biogenesis of the Trypanosome Endo-Exocytotic Organelle Is Cytoskeleton Mediated
29 Apr 2008
Abstract excerpt
Trypanosoma brucei is a protozoan parasite that is used as a model organism to study such biological phenomena as gene expression, protein trafficking, and cytoskeletal biogenesis. In T. brucei, endocytosis and exocytosis occur exclusively through a sequestered organelle called the flagellar pocket (FP), an invagination of the pellicular membrane. The pocket is the sole site for specific receptors thus...
