SUMO chains depolymerization induces slender to stumpy differentiation in <i>T. brucei</i> bloodstream parasites
2023-11-15
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Trypanosoma brucei are extracellular protozoan parasites transmitted by tsetse flies that cause sleeping sickness in humans and nagana in cattle. Inside the mammalian host, differentiation from a bloodstream replicative slender form into a quiescent stumpy form allows the persistence of the parasite and the spread of the infection. SUMOylation is a reversible and dynamic post-translational modif...
