FAP20 is required for flagellum assembly in <i>Trypanosoma brucei</i>

2024-01-20

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Trypanosoma brucei is a human and animal pathogen that depends on flagellar motility for transmission and infection. The trypanosome flagellum is built around a canonical “9+2” axoneme, containing nine doublet microtubules (DMTs) surrounding two singlet microtubules. Each DMT contains a 13-protofilament A-tubule and a 10-protofilament B-tubule, connected to the A-tubule by a conserved, non-tubul...
