Background: In the last decade, the importance of mitochondrially derived reactive oxygen species (OS) as signals in intracellular communication has been sealed. These though-to-be harmful molecules influence cellular faith decisions and can drive cells towards proliferation, apoptosis or differentiation. The OS are mainly generated as by-products during the process of oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS), which is completed by FoF1-ATP synthase with the formation of ATP. In trypanosomes, unicellular parasites undergoing programmed life cycle development, the cellular differentiation is linked to increased mitochondrial metabolic activity and OS production.
