The Toxoplasma gondii mitochondrial transporter ABCB7 is essential for cytosolic iron-sulfur cluster biogenesis and protein translation

A. E. Maclean, M. A. Sloan, E. A. Renaud, V. Demolombe, S. Besteiro, L. Sheiner

This study identifies and characterizes the Toxoplasma gondii ABCB7 homolog, showing its essential role in cytosolic iron-sulfur cluster biogenesis and protein translation.

Keeping FIT: Iron-mediated post-transcriptional regulation in Toxoplasma gondii

M. A. Sloan, A. L. Scott, C. R. Harding

The paper identifies iron-mediated post-transcriptional regulation in Toxoplasma gondii by showing that a stem-loop structure in the 3' UTR of a gene stabilizes its transcript and protein under low iron conditions.

The Phlebotomus papatasi transcriptomic response to trypanosomatid-contaminated blood is robust but non-specific

M. A. Sloan, J. Sadlova, T. Lestinova, M. Sanders, J. A. Cotton, P. Volf, P. Ligoxygakis

The paper examines the transcriptomic response of sand flies to trypanosomatid-contaminated blood, finding a generalized response to blood meals rather than specific parasite-related changes.

Transcriptional and genomic parallels between the monoxenous parasite Herpetomonas muscarum and Leishmania

M. A. Sloan, K. Brooks, T. D. Otto, M. J. Sanders, J. A. Cotton, P. Ligoxygakis

This paper compares the genome and transcriptome of the monoxenous trypanosomatid Herpetomonas muscarum with the dixenous parasite Leishmania during insect infection, finding conserved features in host interaction.
