Oxidative Phosphorylation Is Required for Powering Motility and Development of the Sleeping Sickness Parasite Trypanosoma brucei in the Tsetse Fly Vector.

An overall trend of increasing motility in the other cell lines between days 6 and 9, despite a trend of slightly declining total cellular ATP in at least the parental cell line ( Fig. 2B ), suggests that the relationship between total cellular ATP concentration and motility is not simply linear but that there is possibly a threshold of ATP availability below which motility cannot be maintained.
