Reactivity of MEST-1 (antigalactofuranose) with Trypanosoma cruzi glycosylinositol phosphorylceramides (GIPCs): immunolocalization of GIPCs in acidic vesicles of epimastigotes.

E Suzuki1, R A Mortara, H K Takahashi, A H Straus.   

Abstract

Using confocal microscopy, MEST-1-positive immunofluorescence was observed within various Trypanosoma cruzi forms, except in cell-derived trypomastigotes. Glycosylinositol phosphorylceramides were identified by thin-layer chromatography immunostaining as the antigens recognized by MEST-1 in these parasites. In epimastigotes, labeling of MEST-1 coincided with acidic vesicles, indicating an internal localization of these glycoconjugates.
