Abstract
The trans-sialidase (TS) from Trypanosoma cruzi is a multifunctional protein given by its enzymatic activity and binding properties. The complex structure of TS promotes topology changes over the protozoa's surface with dramatic consequences for its biology. Detailed sequence analyses show that the evolution of TS in T. cruzi and other trypanosomes as well as its genomic organization is even more complex than it has been supposed before. All of these aspects are still neglected when TS is selected as a target for drug design and chemotherapy of Chagas' disease. Herein these aspects are discussed in the context of TS multifunctionality and dynamics drug design.

Abstract
Two species of the genus Trypanosoma infective to humans have been extensively studied at a cell and molecular level, but study of the third, Trypanosoma rangeli, remains in relative infancy. T. rangeli is non-pathogenic, but is frequently mistaken for the related Chagas disease agent Trypanosoma cruzi with which it shares vectors, hosts, significant antigenicity and a sympatric distribution over a wide geographical area. In this study, we present the T. rangeli gene expression profile as determined by the generation of ESTs (Expressed Sequence Tags) and ORESTES (Open Reading Frame ESTs). A total of 4208 unique high quality sequences were analyzed, composed from epimastigote and trypomastigote forms of SC-58 and Choachí strains, representing the two major phylogenetic lineages of this species. Comparative analyses with T. cruzi and other parasitic kinetoplastid species allowed the assignment of putative biological functions to most of the sequences generated and the establishment of an annotated T. rangeli gene expression database. Even though T. rangeli is apathogenic to mammals, genes associated with virulence in other pathogenic kinetoplastids were found. Transposable elements and genes associated mitochondrial gene expression, specifically RNA editing components, are also described for the first time. Our studies confirm the close phylogenetic relationship between T. cruzi and T. rangeli and enable us to make an estimate for the size of the T. rangeli genome repertoire ( approximately 8500 genes).

Abstract
trans-Sialidase is an essential enzyme for Trypanosoma cruzi, the causative agent of Chagas' disease, to escape from the host immune system and to invade the host cells. Therefore, T. cruzi trans-sialidase (TcTS) presents a potential and appealing therapeutic target for this lethal disease. The availability of a structurally very similar enzyme with strict hydrolase activity (Trypanosoma rangeli sialidase, TrSA) provides us a unique opportunity to understand the determinants of their structure and catalytic mechanism. In this study, we compare the catalytic cleft plasticity of free (apo) and ligand-bound (holo) forms of the two enzymes using molecular dynamics simulations. We focus on the mouth of the catalytic cleft that is defined by two residues: W312 and Y119 in TcTS and W312 and S119 in TrSA. Our results indicate that TcTS has a very flexible, widely open catalytic cleft, mostly due to W312 loop motion, in apo form. However, when the catalytic cleft is occupied by a ligand, the flexibility and solvent exposure of TcTS is significantly reduced. On the other hand, TrSA maintains a more open catalytic cleft compared to its crystal structures in both apo and holo forms (and compared to TcTS in holo forms). The reduced solvent exposure of TcTS catalytic cleft might be partially or fully responsible for TcTS to be a less efficient hydrolase than TrSA.

Abstract
A total of 33 crude and cloned Trypanosoma rangeli stocks found as natural infections in human from Panama and other endemic areas of Central and South America were evaluated as producers of sialidase (SA) activity through the MU-NANA fluorescence test. Negative results were observed in 6 of the isolates: Panama (4), Honduras (1), and Brazil (1). In addition, an immunoblotting analysis confirm the presence of the SA antigen in these stocks without enzymatic activity. These findings must be considered in the interpretation of the biological significance of T. rangeli SA and in the proper characterization and identification of this parasite.

Abstract
The Trypanosoma rangeli-secreted sialidase was purified by bovine submaxillary gland mucin-sepharose affinity chromatography. In immunoblotting analysis, antibodies raised against this molecule recognized polypeptides of 73 kDa in T. rangeli medium supernatant (TrSialr) and of 70 kDa in the cell lysates of T. rangeli (TrSials) and T. cruzi (TcSialL) epimastigotes. TrSialr, TrSials, and TcSialL were subjected to proteolytic cleavage with papain; the resultant peptide pattern displayed differences in the immunoblotting profiles. TrSials was purified by immunoprecipitation, and this protein band was recognized by sera from T. cruzi-infected chronic mice and Chagas' disease patients. In contrast, TrSialr was not recognized by these sera. The antibodies from the infected mice also recognized a band of 70 kDa present in the medium. These preliminary observations imply that the released and somatic sialidases are partially different molecules, with probably different biological roles. The related proteins recognized in T. rangeli and T. cruzi epimastigotes share many antigenic characteristics but have some structural differences, probably related to their function in the parasitic cell. On the basis of the strong antigenicity of TrSials, this molecule is proposed as the antigen for the detection of antibodies arising during T. cruzi infection.

Abstract
Trypanosoma brucei is the cause of the diseases known as sleeping sickness in humans (T. brucei ssp. gambiense and ssp. rhodesiense) and ngana in domestic animals (T. brucei brucei) in Africa. Procyclic trypomastigotes, the tsetse vector stage, express a surface-bound trans-sialidase that transfers sialic acid to the glycosylphosphatidylinositol anchor of procyclin, a surface glycoprotein covering the parasite surface. Trans-sialidase is a unique enzyme expressed by a few trypanosomatids that allows them to scavenge sialic acid from sialylated compounds present in the infected host. The only enzyme extensively characterized is that of the American trypanosome T. cruzi (TcTS). In this work we identified and characterized the gene encoding the trans-sialidase from T. brucei brucei (TbTS). TbTS genes are present at a small copy number, at variance with American trypanosomes where a large gene family is present. The recombinant TbTS protein has both sialidase and trans-sialidase activity, but it is about 10 times more efficient in transferring than in hydrolysing sialic acid. Its N-terminus contains a region of 372 amino acids that is 45% identical to the catalytic domain of TcTS and contains the relevant residues required for catalysis. The enzymatic activity of mutants at key positions involved in the transfer reaction revealed that the catalytic sites of TcTS and TbTS are likely to be similar, but are not identical. As in the case of TcTS and TrSA, the substitution of a conserved tryptophanyl residue changed the substrate specificity rendering a mutant protein capable of hydrolysing both alpha-(2,3) and alpha-(2,6)-linked sialoconjugates.

Abstract
trans-sialidase is a unique sialidase in that, instead of hydrolizing sialic acid, it preferentially transfers the monosaccharide to a terminal beta-galactose in glycoproteins and glycolipids. This enzyme, originally identified in Trypanosoma cruzi, belongs to a large family of proteins. Some members of the family lack the enzymatic activity. No function has been yet assigned to them. In this work, the gene copy number and the possible function of inactive members of the trans -sialidase family was studied. It is shown that genes encoding inactive members are not a few, but rather, are present in the same copy number (60-80 per haploid genome) as those encoding active trans -sialidases. Recombinant inactive proteins were purified and assayed for sialic acid and galactose binding activity in agglutination tests. The enzymatically inactive trans -sialidases were found to agglutinate de-sialylated erythrocytes but not untreated red blood cells. Assays made with mouse and rabbit red blood cells suggest that inactive trans -sialidases bind to beta, rather than alpha, terminal galactoses, the same specificity required by active trans -sialidases. A recombinant molecule that was made enzymatically inactive through a mutation in a single amino acid also retained the galactose binding activity. The binding was competed by lactose and was dependent on conservation of the protein native conformation. Therefore, at least some molecules in the trans -sialidase family that have lost their enzymatic function still retain their Gal-binding properties and might have a function as lectins in the parasite-host interaction.

Abstract
The epimastigote stage of Trypanosoma rangeli release a sialidase with a high sialic acid hydrolysis capacity. We demonstrate that sialidase secretion is an active process that is reduced at low temperatures and in the presence of sodium azide. The enzyme is continuously released until certain maximally active concentrations are attained in the BHI culture medium when the parasite density reaches 2-3 x 10(6) cells. When introduced into culture medium already containing such enzyme levels, freshly harvested parasites do not secrete additional sialidase. These findings suggest a self-regulating mechanism and a biological role for the secreted T. rangeli sialidase. The secreted enzyme was purified to homogeneity by fractionation with ammonium sulphate and affinity chromatography. Antibodies raised against the purified molecule recognized antigens of similar molecular weights (73 kDa) in western immunoblotting analyses of T. rangeli and T. cruzi whole cell lysates. No antigenic recognition was recorded against T. cruzi active sialidase/trans-sialidase polypeptides or Clostridium perfringens and Vibrio cholerae commercial sialidases. These observations may indicate the expression of different antigenic domains in T. rangeli, T. cruzi and bacterial sialidases.

Abstract
Several protozoan parasites of human have been found to express enzymes capable of releasing terminal sialic acid residues from host glycans. These include enzymes similar in activity to bacterial and viral sialidases, as well as a novel type of enzyme, trans-sialidase, which can transfer sialic acid from one carbohydrate chain to another. Here we report the isolation of a gene and a gene fragment from the kinetoplastid Trypanosoma rangeli which encode products related in sequence to the trans-sialidase enzyme of T. cruzi. The gene fragment ORF is nearly identical to that of the complete gene, which encodes an enzymatically inactive protein. When the ORF of the gene fragment is fused to fragments from related genes, it encodes a product with sialidase activity. Both predicted T. rangeli protein products also have other potential structural features found in bacterial sialidases and in members of a previously described Trypanosoma trans-sialidase superfamily.

Abstract
The molecular karyotypes of several different protozoan parasites show high intra-species variation, including different kinetoplastids such as Trypanosoma brucei, Trypanosoma cruzi and Leishmania ssp. In this study, the molecular karyotype of Trypanosoma rangeli was examined. To evaluate potential intra-species molecular karyotype variations, 16 different samples were studied by pulsed field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) followed by ethidium bromide staining and hybridizations with 6 different probes. The result showed that different T. rangeli populations are highly polymorphic regarding the molecular karyotype, and thus suggests that PFGE analysis can be used for classification of different T. rangeli isolates. In addition, the molecular karyotype of T. rangeli was compared to molecular karyotypes of other kinetoplastids, and was shown to be distinctly different from that of T. cruzi, but shows some similarities with the karyotype described for T. brucei. Among the probes used one was identified as highly polymorphic, and thus informative for studies of different T. rangeli populations, and another was useful for differentiation between T. rangeli and T. cruzi.

Abstract
The expression of developmentally regulated sialidase and trans-sialidase activities in kinetoplastid protozoa was investigated. The occurrence of these enzymes was found not to be a common feature among the Kinetoplastida, but to be restricted to distinct developmental life cycle stages of only a few species. While sialidases without trans-sialylating activities were demonstrated in Trypanosoma vivax and T. rangeli, trans-sialidase activity is expressed throughout the brucei-group and in T. congolense. Neither T. evansi, nor T. equiperdum express sialidases or trans-sialidases. Furthermore, the absence of both, sialidase and trans-sialidase activities was proven in the Leishmania, Crithidia, Herpetomonas, Leptomonas and Phytomonas, respectively. In all species tested, the occurrence of sialic acids coincides with the expression of trans-sialidase activity. Those parasites, which lack trans-sialidases or only display regular sialidases, also lack cell-bound sialic acids. The regular sialidase activity from bloodstream form T. vivax was characterized. The trans-sialidase from T. congolense is restricted to the procyclic culture forms and is shed into the culture medium. The enzyme has a pH-optimum at pH 7.0, displays sensitivity towards chlorides and is resistant against commonly used sialidase inhibitors. T. congolense trans-sialidase transfers preferentially alpha(2-3)-linked sialic acids onto terminal beta-galactose residues. Also hydroxylated sialic acids (Neu5Gc) are transferred. The major glycoprotein GARP from procyclic T. congolense was identified as one potential natural sialic acid acceptor on the parasite's surface. In order to facilitate the characterization of trans-sialidases a novel, fluorimetric trans-sialidase assay was developed.

Abstract
During invasion of multicellular organisms, protozoan parasites expose functional molecules that become targets for the host immune response. Recent research on Trypanosoma cruzi, the agent of Chagas' disease, suggests a new model of how the parasite might deal with this problem. Several antigens of T. cruzi have tandemly repeated amino acid motifs in molecules with as yet unknown functions. In two cases, these repeats are in molecules with a defined structure or function. Both proteins are implicated in the invasion of host-cells by the parasite. One of these is the core protein of a putative mucin-like glycoprotein that has Thr/Pro-rich repeats which, by themselves, might define the structure of a highly O-glycosylated molecule. The other protein is SAPA/trans-sialidase/neuraminidase, a molecule able to transfer sialic acid, that has so far only been described in trypanosomes. The amino acid repeats present in SAPA/transsialidase/neuraminidase are unrelated to the enzymic activity and constitute an immunodominant C-terminal domain. The N-terminal domain of SAPA/trans-sialidase/neuraminidase controls the enzymic activity since a recombinant molecule lacking the repeats conserves trans-sialidase activity. That both domains are functionally independent is also indicated by experiments that show that antibodies directed against the amino acid repeats are unable to inhibit trans-sialidase activity. A large number of proteins having trans-sialidase related sequences but lacking enzymic activity are also present in the surface membrane of the parasite. The immunodominant SAPA/trans-sialidase/neuraminidase repeats, together with the complex network of cross-reacting epitopes present in related but enzymatically inactive proteins might contribute to the delay in mounting an effective antibody response.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
