Application

Application Comment Organism
additional information an ancient common ancestor of Euglenozoa had a mitochondrial DHOD whose descendant exists in Euglena gracilis Euglena gracilis
additional information Bodo saliens has an ACT/DHOD gene fusion encoding aspartate carbamoyltransferase, the second enzyme of the de novo pyrimidine pathway, and DHOD Neobodo saliens
additional information the cytosolic DHOD gene acquired may have contributed to adaptation to anaerobiosis in the kinetoplastid lineage and further contributes to the subsequent establishment of parasitism in a trypanosomatid ancestor Trypanosoma cruzi

Euglena gracilis

Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
additional information DHOD-knockout Trypanosoma cruzi do not express the enzyme protein and can not survive even in the presence of pyrimidine nucleosides, suggesting a vital role of fumarate reductase activity in the regulation of cellular redox balance Trypanosoma cruzi
