Gluconeogenesis using glycerol as a substrate in bloodstream-form Trypanosoma brucei.
Bloodstream form African trypanosomes are thought to rely exclusively upon glycolysis, using glucose as a substrate, for ATP production. Indeed, the pathway has long been considered a potential therapeutic target to tackle the devastating and neglected tropical diseases caused by these parasites. Ho...
