Trypanosomatids, unicellular organisms responsible for several global diseases, contain unique organelles called glycosomes in which the first seven glycolytic enzymes are sequestered. We report the crystal structures of glycosomal fructose-1,6-bisphosphate aldolase from two major tropical pathogens, Trypanosoma brucei and Leishmania mexicana, the causative agents of African sleeping sickness and one form of leishmaniasis, respectively ...
