Calpains are a ubiquitous family of calcium-dependent cysteine proteases involved in a wide range of cell regulatory and differentiation processes. In many protozoan organisms, atypical calpains have been discovered that lack the characteristic calci... Read More about The characterisation of calpain-like proteins in Trypanosoma brucei.

The genome of the African trypanosome, Trypanosoma brucei, presents an unusual karyotype in which two main classes of chromosomes, large and small minichromosomes, need to be faithfully replicated and segregated during the cell cycle. Although the la... Read More about Functional characterisation of cohesin subunit SMC3 and separase and their roles in the segregation of large and minichromosomes in Trypanosoma brucei.

The characterisation of family-13 kinesins in Trypanosoma brucei (2008)

Kinesins are motor proteins involved in the movement of organelles and sub-organelles along microtubule tracks within the cell. Phylogenetic analysis of the 46 kinesin genes coded by the Trypanosoma brucei genome resulted in the grouping of seven kin...
