ABSTRACT Kinetoplastid parasites, including Trypanosoma brucei, Trypanosoma cruzi, and Leishmania, harbor unique organelles known as glycosomes, which are evolutionarily related to peroxisomes. Glycosome/peroxisome biogenesis is mediated by proteins called peroxins that facilitate organelle formatio...
