Characterization of a Gi-protein from Trypanosoma cruzi epimastigote membranes.
A guanosine 5'-[gamma-[35S]thio]triphosphate-binding activity was detergent-extracted from Trypanosoma cruzi membranes. This binding activity was co-eluted from gel-filtration columns with a factor which, in a heterologous reconstitution system, blocks glucagon stimulation of adenylate cyclase activity in liver membranes. ADP-ribosylation of these membranes by pertussis toxin eliminated this bl...
متن کاملExperimental and Mathematical-Modeling Characterization of Trypanosoma cruzi Epimastigote Motility
The present work is aimed at characterizing the motility of parasite T. cruzi in its epimastigote form. To that end, we recorded the trajectories of two strains of this parasite (a wild-type strain and a stable transfected strain, which contains an ectopic copy of LYT1 gene and whose motility is known to be affected). We further extracted parasite trajectories from the recorded videos, and stat...
متن کاملStructural analysis of inositol phospholipids from Trypanosoma cruzi epimastigote forms.
Inositol phospholipids (IPL) from epimastigote forms of Trypanosoma cruzi have been investigated by metabolic labelling with [3H]palmitic acid and by GLC-MS analysis of the lipids obtained from non-labelled parasites. The IPL fraction was separated into phosphatidylinositol (PI) and inositol-phosphoceramide subfractions, the latter accounting for 80-85% of the total IPL. The neutral lipids rele...
