abstract：:Many cellular processes change during the Trypanosoma brucei life cycle as this parasite alternates between the mammalian host and tsetse fly vector. We show that the inositol phosphate pathway helps regulate these developmental changes. Knockdown of inositol polyphosphate multikinase (IPMK), which phosphorylates Ins(...

We defined the minimal functional unit of MCAK as the catalytic domain plus the class specific neck (MD-MCAK), which is consistent with previous reports. We used steady-state ATPase kinetics, microtubule ...
