Similar to higher eukaryotes, the protist parasite T. brucei harbours several iron-containing proteins that regulate DNA and protein processing, oxidative stress defence and mitochondrial respiration. The synthesis of these proteins occurs either in... Read More about Characterisation of a mitochondrial iron transporter of the pathogen Trypanosoma brucei.
