kinetoplastida การใช้
- Kinetoplastida is divided into two subclasses-Metakinetoplastina and Prokinetoplastina.
- Bronislaw M . Honigberg created the taxonomic names Kinetoplastida and Kinetoplastea in 1963.
- While Kinetoplastida is mostly used to designate the order, but is also used as a class.
- Lynn Margulis, who initially accepted Kinetoplastida as an order in 1974, later placed it as a class.
- Use of Kinetoplastida as an order also creates confusion as there is already an older name Trypanosomatida Kent, 1880, under which the kinetoplastids are most often placed.
- One family of kinetoplastids, the trypanosomatids, is notable as it includes several genera which are exclusively parasitic . " Bodo " is a typical genus within kinetoplastida and including various common free-living species which feed on bacteria.
- This reaction is especially important for protozoa in the order kinetoplastida as the molecule of N1, N8-bis ( glutathionyl ) spermidine, also known as trypanothione, is homologous to the function of glutathione in most other prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells.
- "' Kinetoplastida "'( or "'Kinetoplastea "', as a class ) is a group of flagellated protists belonging to the phylum Euglenozoa, and characterised by the presence of an organelle with a large massed DNA called kinetoplast ( hence the name ).
- However, other parasitic or symbiotic unicellular organisms were included too in protozoan groups outside Sporozoa ( Flagellata, Ciliophora and Sarcodina ), if they had flagella ( e . g ., many Kinetoplastida, Retortamonadida, Diplomonadida, Trichomonadida, Hypermastigida ), cilia ( e . g ., " Balantidium " ) or pseudopods ( e . g ., " Entamoeba, Acanthamoeba, Naegleria " ).
