Guidelines for the use and interpretation of assays for monitoring autophagy

Daniel J. Klionsky, +1287 more
- 01 Apr 2012 - 
TL;DR: These guidelines are presented for the selection and interpretation of methods for use by investigators who aim to examine macroautophagy and related processes, as well as for reviewers who need to provide realistic and reasonable critiques of papers that are focused on these processes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inhibition of Trypanosoma brucei gene expression by RNA interference using an integratable vector with opposing T7 promoters

TL;DR: A vector for in vivo tetracycline-inducible synthesis of double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) in stably transformed cells is described and one striking phenotype was the loss of kinetoplast DNA after interference with expression of a topoisomerase II.
Journal ArticleDOI

The role of plasmodium falciparum food vacuole plasmepsins

TL;DR: In this paper, double crossover homologous recombination has been employed to study food vacuole plasmepsin function in cultured P. falciparum and the results suggest substantial functional redundancy and have important implications for the design of antimalarial drugs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Glycolysis modulates trypanosome glycoprotein expression as revealed by an RNAi library

TL;DR: The data suggest that T.brucei ‘senses’ changes in glucose level and modulates procyclin expression accordingly, and is supported by observation of a similar upregulation of GPEET‐procyclin when parental cells were grown in medium depleted of glucose.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mechanisms of cellular invasion by intracellular parasites.

TL;DR: This review is an overview of the molecular mechanisms of protozoan parasite invasion of host cells and discussion of therapeutic strategies, which could be developed by targeting these invasion pathways, which are responsible for significant morbidity and mortality.
