Genomic instability in Schistosoma mansoni.

Molecular and biochemical parasitology - 25 Jun 1999

Grevelding C G

Abstract excerpt

In schistosomes, the W chromosome characterizes the heterogametic female-sex (ZW) whereas males are homogametic (ZZ). In the heterochromatic region of the W chromosome, the repetitive elements W1 and W2 are located which had originally been found as female-specific sequences in Puerto Rican isolates of Schistosoma mansoni. An analysis of the strain- and sex-specific occurrence of these elements revealed that both...
