The glycosome helps trypanosomes to recover from a low blood-glucose level when returning to a normal one. Trypanosomes consuming glucose in a steady state at 0.01 mM (a) or 0.05 mM (b) extracellular glucose, were given 5 mM glucose after 60 s. The cytosolic ATP concentration was monitored, both in the model with the glycosome (solid line) and in the model without the glycosome (dashed line). (Inset) Part from 30 to 90 s enlarged.
