Mitochondrial energy metabolism in \kur{Trypanosoma brucei}

Abstract

The thesis summarizes data gathered on various components of respiratory chain of Trypanosoma brucei. Namely, NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase (complex I), alternative NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase (NDH2) and mitochondrial glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase are discussed themselves and in broader context of energy metabolism. Also, a work done using RNA interference library is described
