Morphogenesis in <i>Trypanosoma cruzi</i> epimastigotes proceeds via a highly asymmetric cell division

2023-05-24

Abstract excerpt

Trypanosoma cruzi is a protist parasite that is the causative agent of Chagas’ disease, a neglected tropical disease endemic to the Americas. T. cruzi cells are highly polarized and undergo morphological changes as they cycle within their insect and mammalian hosts. Work on related trypanosomatids has described cell division mechanisms in several life-cycle stages and identified a set of essential morphogenic pro...
