The GPI-Phospholipase C of Trypanosoma brucei Is Nonessential But Influences Parasitemia in Mice
In the mammalian host, the cell surface of Trypanosoma brucei is protected by a variant surface glycoprotein that is anchored in the plasma membrane through covalent attachment of the COOH terminus to a glycosylphosphatidylinositol.
