Abstract
⺠Membranes of Trypanosoma brucei glycosomes contain three different ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters. ⺠The expression of the glycosomal ABC transporters is developmentally regulated. ⺠The ATP-binding site of the transporters is at the cytosolic face of the membrane. ⺠At least one of the ABC transporters serves to transport oleoyl-CoA into glycosomes.
