Thrilled to share our latest work in Nucleic Acids Research! π
We demonstrate that VSG transcripts in trypanosomes play a non-coding role in controlling allelic exclusion, revealing a new layer of RNA regulation.

The Dewar lab uses #trypanosomes to investigate molecular mechanisms involved in keeping vital mitochondria working. The extraordinary single tryp mito helps illuminate novel features of mitochondrial quality control pathways while informing drug discovery for #sleepingsickness
African trypanosomes cause disease in humans and animals characterised by waves of high parasite burden accompanied by host fever. Research in the @MickUrbaniak lab funded by #BBSRC is revealing how African #trypanosomes survive host fever, which may lead to new treatments
In our January issue: Do tissue-dwelling #trypanosomes sustain #transmission populations? authored by Stephen Larcombe @jane_munday & @rmc9z highlighting @MonicaMugnier & colleaguesβ @Nature article. #Antigenic #Variation #VSG #Antigen #Differentiation

How do #trypanosomes restrict #IFT to only 4 doublet microtubules? 2 hypotheses were proposed (restriction @ the flagellum base or @ the injection) but @Aline_A_Alves reveals it is a third way! It all happens in the proximal portion of the flagellum! (BioRxiv link@ end of thread)

#MeetTheResearcher
Happy to introduce Beth Bakewell-Smith (@bethbkwellsmith) from the Higgins lab this week.
Beth is a DPhil student, investigating how components of human serum provide protection against infection by #trypanosomes.
Read the latest paper from @UoDLifeSciences @WCAIRDundee Anna Trenaman, Michele Tinti, Richard Wall & David Horn in @NatureComms

Pam16 & Pam18 are essential for #mitochondrial protein import in eukaryotes, but not in #Trypanosomes. @aschneiderlab show that TbPam16/18 have been repurposed to regulate #replication of #maxicircles within the T. brucei mitochondrial genome #PLOSBiology https://t.co/j65irulVyp
