History of Knowledge

This species was first described by G. A. Klebs in 1892 as Tetramitus pyriformis.[2][3] More than 100 years later, in 1999, it was transferred to the genus Trimastix and synonymized with T. convexa based on its morphology.[4] The first ultrastructural study using transmission electron microscopy was published the same year, which reported a discovery of hydrogenosome-like organelles in the species.[5]

A molecular phylogenetic study based on small-subunit ribosomal RNA placed the genus Trimastix (then including P. pyriformis) as sister to the oxymonad Pyrsonympha in 2001[6] and a close relationship to oxymonads was further supported in another study in 2005.[7] The clade uniting Trimastix and oxymonads was named Preaxostyla in 2003.[8] A more detailed molecular phylogenetic analysis in 2015 placed this species in a new genus Paratrimastix, even more closely related to oxymonads than Trimastix.[9] Preaxostyla (consisting of Trimastix, Paratrimastix, and oxymonads) is now considered one of the five major lineages of Metamonada.[10][11]

A series of transcriptomic studies between the years 2006 and 2016 reported details of P. pyriformis glycolytic pathway[12] and arginine deiminase pathway,[13] as well as supported the mitochondrial ancestry of its hydrogenosome-like organelles[14] and uncovered their role in amino acid metabolism.[15]

Morphology and Ultrastructure

P. pyriformis has four flagella, one directed anteriorly, one posteriorly, and others laterally. The posterior flagellum has two vanes with thickened vane margins. Ventral side of the cell is shaped in the form of a broad groove, a typical excavate feature, which is used as a feeding structure.[5]
