Divergent metabolism between <i>Trypanosoma congolense</i> and <i>Trypanosoma brucei</i> results in differential drug sensitivity

2021-01-05

Abstract excerpt

Animal African Trypanosomiasis (AAT) is a debilitating livestock disease prevalent across sub-Saharan Africa, a main cause of which is the protozoan parasite Trypanosoma congolense . In comparison to the well-studied T. brucei , there is a major paucity of knowledge regarding the biology of T. congolense . Here, we use a combination of omics technologies and novel genetic tools to characterise core metabolism i...
