Kinetoplastida (or Kinetoplastea, as a class) is a group of flagellated protists belonging to the phylum Euglenozoa, [3][4] and characterised by the presence of a distinctive organelle called …

A kinetoplast is a network of circular DNA (called kDNA) inside a mitochondrion that contains many copies of the mitochondrial genome. [1][2] The most common kinetoplast structure is a …

Kinetoplastids are flagellated protozoans, which are unicellular eukaryotic organisms. They include free-living microorganisms, as well as parasites of diverse invertebrate, vertebrate, and...

Kinetoplastids are a group of flagellated protozoans that are distinguished by the presence of a DNA-containing region, known as a “kinetoplast,” in their single large mitochondrion.

Classified under the phylum Euglenozoa, Kinetoplastids are flagellated protozoa classified under two monophyletic groups, namely, biflagellate bodonids and uniflagellate trypanosomatids …

To eradicate kinetoplastid infections in humans, we must gain a better understanding of variants of pathogens and their vectors, the transmission models among their hosts, and efficacious …

In kinetoplastids, both rings of DNA are important and serve different roles that allow the cell to function. In each network of kinetoplast DNA (kDNA), there are several dozen (20 - 50) …

The kinetoplastids are a group of single-cell flagellate eukaryotes. They include a number of parasites responsible for serious diseases in humans and other animals. There are also forms …

A kinetoplastid is a class of flagellated unicellular parasites known for their unique organelles like the kinetoplast and glycosome, which play crucial roles in mitochondrial DNA transcription and …

Kinetoplastid protists belonging to the phylum Euglenozoa (Cavalier-Smith 1981) are characterised by the presence of a kinetoplast, which is the apomorphy for the group and …
