Abstract
Amongst the earliest eukaryotes, trypanosomes have developed conventional o rganelles but sometimes with extreme features rarely seen in other organism s. This is the case of the flagellum, containing conventional and unique st ructures whose role in infectivity is still enigmatic. (C) 2000 Editions sc ientifiques et medicales Elsevier SAS.
