A superfamily of invariant surface glycoproteins (ISGs) populates the African trypanosome surface, one of which, ISG75, is implicated in uptake of the century-old drug suramin. We disrupted the ISG75 gene locus encoding an array of six ISG75 paralogs on chromosome V by CRISPR/Cas9 knockout. Here we ...

Subspecies of Trypanosoma brucei are the causative agents of Human African Trypanosomiasis (HAT) in Sub-Saharan Africa. The surface proteome of trypanosome parasites serves a critical function at the host-parasite interface and is essential for immune evasion. Most of the surface area is covered by ...

Trypanosoma brucei spp. develop into mammalian-infectious metacyclic trypomastigotes inside tsetse salivary glands. Besides acquiring a variant surface glycoprotein (VSG) coat, little is known about the metacyclic expression of invariant surface antigens. Proteomics analyses of saliva from T. brucei...

Surface membrane organization and composition is key to cellular function, and membrane proteins serve many essential roles in endocytosis, secretion and cell recognition. The surface of parasitic organisms, however, is a double-edged sword; this is the primary interface between parasites and their ...

Aim of the experiment was to characterize the gene activation profile

induced within immature myeloid DCs by cell-cell contact with activated

invariant NKT cells under steady-state conditions.

In trypanosomes two deubiquitilating enzymes (DUBs), orthologous to human USP7 and VDU1, control abundance of a cohort of surface proteins, including invariant surface glycoproteins (ISGs). Silencing TbUsp7 partially inhibits endocytosis and invariant surface glycoprotein turnover. S-phase kinase-as...

We compared splenic Va14i NKT cells from C57BL/6 control mice and from mice injected 4 weeks earlier intravenously with 4ug/mouse of the iNKT cell antigen alpha-galactosylceramide (aGalCer). These mice were either left unstimulated or were stimulated with 1ug/mouse aGalCer i.v.. All mice were female...
