Comparative genomics: from genotype to disease phenotype in the leishmaniases.

International journal for parasitology - 1 Sept 2007

Smith Deborah F, Peacock Christopher S, Cruz Angela K

Abstract excerpt

Recent progress in sequencing the genomes of several Leishmania species, causative agents of cutaneous, mucocutaneous and visceral leishmaniasis, is revealing unusual features of potential relevance to parasite virulence and pathogenesis in the host. While the genomes of Leishmania major, Leishmania braziliensis and Leishmania infantum are highly similar in content and organisation, species-specific genes and...
