BackgroundTrypanosomes can synthesize polyunsaturated fatty acids. Previously, we have shown that they possess stearoyl-CoA desaturase (SCD) and oleate desaturase (OD) to convert stearate (C18) into oleate (C18:1) and linoleate (C18:2), respectively.

Fumarate hydratases (FHs; EC 4.2.1.2) are enzymes that catalyze the reversible hydration of fumarate to S-malate. Parasitic protists that belong to the genus Leishmania and are responsible for a complex of vector-borne diseases named leishmaniases po

Folate analogue inhibitors of Leishmania major pteridine reductase (PTR1) are potential antiparasitic drug candidates for combined therapy with dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) inhibitors. To identify new molecules with specificity for PTR1, we carried

Reason for post-kala-azar dermal leishmaniasis (PKDL) is yet to be established. Earlier it was observed that morphology and biochemical properties of host peroxisomes were impaired during Leishmania infection. As peroxisome is known to be involved in

We have examined fura 2-loaded purified peroxisomes under confocal microscope to prove that this mammalian organelle is a store of intracellular calcium pool. Presence of calcium channel and vanadate sensitive Ca2+-ATPase in the purified peroxisomal

The upregulation of pteridine reductase (PTR1) is a major contributor to antifolate drug resistance in Leishmania spp., as it provides a salvage pathway that bypasses dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) inhibition. The structure-based optimization of the

The leishmaniasis is a group of diseases caused by protozoan haemoflagelates of the genus Leishmania1,2. These parasites belong to the family of the Trypanosomatidae (order Kinetoplastida) and are closely related to the Trypanosomes3. Despite enormou

Trypanosoma brucei, the etiologic agent of sleeping sickness, is exposed to important changes in nutrients and temperature during its life cycle. To adapt to these changes, the fluidity of its membranes plays a crucial role. This fluidity, mediated b

In trypanosomatids, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH), the first enzyme of the pentosephosphate pathway, is essential for the defense of the parasite against oxidative stress. Trypanosoma brucei, Trypanosoma cruzi, and Leishmania mexicana G6P
