Identification of Positive Chemotaxis in the Protozoan Pathogen <named-content content-type="genus-species">Trypanosoma brucei</named-content>
ABSTRACT To complete its infectious cycle, the protozoan parasite Trypanosoma brucei must navigate through diverse tissue environments in both its tsetse fly and mammalian hosts. This is hypothesized to be driven by yet unidentified chemotactic cues. Prior work has shown that parasites engaging in s...
