Turnover of Variant Surface Glycoprotein in <named-content content-type="genus-species">Trypanosoma brucei</named-content> Is a Bimodal Process
ABSTRACT African trypanosomes utilize glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored variant surface glycoprotein (VSG) to evade the host immune system. VSG turnover is thought to be mediated via cleavage of the GPI anchor by endogenous GPI-specific phospholipase C (GPI-PLC). However, GPI-PLC is topolo...
