Visualisation of experimentally determined and predicted protein N-glycosylation and predicted glycosylphosphatidylinositol anchor addition in Trypanosoma brucei.

2022-01-31

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> Trypanosoma brucei is a protozoan parasite and the etiological agent of human and animal African trypanosomiasis. The organism <ns4:italic/> cycles between its mammalian host and tsetse vector. The host-dwelling bloodstream form of the parasite is covered with a monolayer of variant surface glycoprotein (VSG) that enables it to escape both the innate and adaptive immune systems. Within this...
