High impact information on Tb927.7.210

In contrast, trypanosomes in the stationary phase show a decreased level of glucose oxidation, express pyrroline-5-carboxylate reductase (proline oxidase), are inhibited in oxygen uptake to about 44% by KCN, undergo considerable morphological changes on the cellular and subcellular level, and have a significantly smaller cell volume [1].
Addition of citrate/cis-aconitate at 37 degrees C to bloodstream forms leads to the formation of aconitase and proline oxidase [2].
