Molecular analysis of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase in Trypanoplasma borelli: An evolutionary scenario of subcellular compartmentation in Kinetoplastida

Abstract: In Trypanoplasma borelli, a representative of the Bodonina within the Kinetoplastida, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) activity was detected in both the cytosol and glycosomes. This situation is similar to that previously found in Trypanosomatidae, belonging to a different Kinetoplastida suborder. In Trypanosomatidae different isoenzymes, only distantly related, are responsible for the activity in the two cell compartments. In contrast, immunoblot analysis indicated that the GAPDH activity in c… Show more

“…Using digitonin titration, the subcellular localization of putG3PDH was experimentally addressed in cells expressing the V5-tagged version of the protein, as increasing concentrations of this nonionic detergent sequentially permeabilize cell membranes on the basis of their different levels of sterol content (32). Marker Abs for different T. brucei cell compartments were used as controls (Fig.…”

“…Phylogenetic analysis based on ssu rRNA sequence data indicate that the genus Trypanosoma is monophyletic (Stevens & Gibson 1999, Stevens et al 1999a,b, 2000 endorsed by studies based on the GAPDH gene (Wiemer et al 1995, Alvarez et al 1996, Hannaert et al 1998, and on 9S and 12S mitochondrial rRNA genes (Lake et al 1988), elongation factor 1α (Hashimoto et al 1995), trypanothione reductase and α-tubulin (Alvarez et al 1996) and phosphoglycerate kinase (Adjé et al 1998). All trypanosomes are parasitic, so the idea of of a monophyletic origin suggests an ancestral parasitic form that gave rise to the mammalian trypanosomes of Africa, America, and Australasia, as well as the various forms that parasitise fish.…”

“…( Wright et al, 1999), and the freeliving species Bodo caudatus (Fernandes et al, 1993), Dimastigella trypaniformis (Berchtold et al, 1994) and , 1997). By putting into phylogenetic context the data obtained by the analysis of RNA editing Lukes) et al, 1994 ;Blom et al, 1998Blom et al, , 2000, kDNA structure ( Yasuhira & Simpson, 1996 ;Lukes) et al, 1998), and glycosomes ( Wiemer et al, 1995) a better understanding of these processes and structures can be achieved. The aim of this work is to determine phylogenetic relationships within the suborder Bodonina, and to provide a framework for molecular and biochemical studies on bodonids.…”
