Differential regulation of putrescine uptake in trypanosoma cruzi and other trypanosomatids

Putrescine uptake in Trypanosoma cruzi epimastigotes is 10 to 50-fold higher than in Leishmania mexicana or Crithidia fasciculata. Polyamine transport in all these trypanosomatids is an energy-dependent process strongly inhibited by the presence of 2,4-dinitrophenol or KCN. Putrescine uptake in T. c...
