Functionally Different AU- and G-rich cis-Elements Confer Developmentally Regulated mRNA Stability inTrypanosoma cruzi by Interaction with Specific RNA-binding Proteins
1 May 2001
Abstract excerpt
Post-transcriptional regulatory mechanisms have been suggested to be the main point of control of gene expression in kinetoplastid parasites. We have previously shown that Trypanosoma cruzi SMUG mucin mRNA steady-state level is developmentally regulated by post-transcriptional mechanisms, being stable in the epimastigote insect vector stage, but unstable in the trypomastigote infective stage of the parasite. Its...
