Journal ArticleDOI
Adaptations of Trypanosoma brucei to gradual loss of kinetoplast DNA: Trypanosoma equiperdum and Trypanosoma evansi are petite mutants of T. brucei.
De-Hua Lai,Hassan Hashimi,Hassan Hashimi,Zhao-Rong Lun,Francisco J. Ayala,Julius Lukeš,Julius Lukeš +6 more
TL;DR: It is shown that both species are actually strains of T. brucei equiperdum and T. evansi, which lost part (Dk) or all (Ak) of their kDNA, and these trypanosomes are not monophyletic clades and do not qualify for species status.
Journal ArticleDOI
Unexplained complexity of the mitochondrial genome and transcriptome in kinetoplastid flagellates
TL;DR: Kinetoplastids are flagellated protozoans, whose members include the pathogens Trypanosoma brucei, T. cruzi and Leishmania species, that are considered among the earliest diverging eukaryotes with a mitochondrion, and hold promise in understanding the complexity of this exciting organelle.
Journal ArticleDOI
Trypanosomatids Are Much More than Just Trypanosomes: Clues from the Expanded Family Tree
Julius Lukeš,Julius Lukeš,Anzhelika Butenko,Anzhelika Butenko,Hassan Hashimi,Hassan Hashimi,Dmitri A. Maslov,Jan Votýpka,Jan Votýpka,Vyacheslav Yurchenko,Vyacheslav Yurchenko +10 more
TL;DR: This review covers recent advances in the study of insect trypanosomatids, highlighting their diversity as well as genetic, morphological and biochemical complexity, which, until recently, was underappreciated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Trypanosome RNA editing: the complexity of getting U in and taking U out.
TL;DR: It is indicated that the machinery required for trypanosome RNA editing is much more complicated than previously appreciated and appears to act as a hub for coordination of RNA editing with additional mitochondrial RNA processing events.
Journal ArticleDOI
Recent advances in trypanosomatid research: genome organization, expression, metabolism, taxonomy and evolution
Dmitri A. Maslov,Fred R. Opperdoes,Alexei Y. Kostygov,Hassan Hashimi,Julius Lukeš,Vyacheslav Yurchenko +5 more
TL;DR: There is a need for a more comprehensive review that summarizing recent advances in the studies of trypanosomatids in the last 30 years, a task, which is tried to accomplish with the current paper.
