- Convergent evolution of Trichomonas vaginalis lactate dehydrogenase from malate dehydrogenaseG Wu
The Rockefeller University, New York, NY 10021, USA
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 96:6285-90. 1999..The reverse single amino acid change Arg91Leu in TvMDH, however, gave a product with no measurable LDH activity. Phylogenetic reconstructions indicate that TvLDH arose from an MDH relatively recently...
- Evolutionary relationships of the glucokinase from the amitochondriate protist, Trichomonas vaginalisG Wu
The Rockefeller University, 1230 York Avenue, New York, NY 10021, USA
Gene 264:265-71. 2001..The results indicate that the evolutionary past of this enzyme, catalyzing the first step of glycolysis in T. vaginalis, is different from that of the enzyme performing this key role in almost all other eukaryotes...
