A Trypanosoma brucei gambiense gene variant confers human serum resistance

Nicola Minshall, Sourav Banerjee, Olivia J. S. Macleod…·Mark Carrington

The paper identifies a gene variant in Trypanosoma brucei gambiense that confers resistance to human serum, explaining how this subspecies evades trypanolytic factors.

Cell surface localisation of GPI-anchored receptors in Trypanosoma brucei

Sourav Banerjee, Nicola Minshall, Alexander D. Cook…·Mark Carrington

This study shows GPI-anchored receptors in Trypanosoma brucei are localized across the entire cell surface, not just the flagellar pocket, challenging previous assumptions about immune evasion.
