A α-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase is present in Trypanosoma cruzi glycosomes
α-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase (α-GPDH-EC.1.1.1.8) has been considered absent in Trypanosoma cruzi in contradiction with all other studied trypanosomatids. After observing that the sole malate dehydrogenase can not maintain the intraglycosomal redox balance, GPDH activity was l...
