Abstract excerpt

Variation in the tandem repeats in the expression site of the human-derived Pneumocystis carinii major surface glycoprotein gene was characterized by denaturing gel electrophoresis. The number of repeats in 147 isolates ranged from 2 to 6, with 2, 3, and 4 repeats being the most common. Sequence analysis identified 3 types of repeat units that differed by 1 nucleotide, which suggests a hierarchy of evolution of...
