The paper identifies the M6P pathway as ancient and widespread in eukaryotes, with functional diversification in Trichomonas vaginalis.

This study shows Trichomonas vaginalis phagocytoses Lactobacillus jensenii via pseudopodia-independent mechanism and secretes TvGH25 lysozyme to reduce bacterial counts.

This paper identifies a non-bifurcating NADH-dependent enzyme complex in anaerobic fungi responsible for H2 production, distinct from ferredoxin-dependent pathways.

The paper studies the expansion of endomembrane rescue systems in parasitic Parabasalids by comparing them to their free-living sister lineage, identifying specific expansions and losses in Retromer and Retriever machinery.
