Abstract excerpt
The genes encoding the Trypanosoma rangeli heat shock protein 70kDa were sequenced and their genomic organization determined. This human parasite has medical relevance as it shares antigens, hosts and geographical regions with the etiological agent of Chagas' disease, Trypanosoma cruzi. The T. rangeli HSP70 genes are highly conserved regarding their tandem organization, and deduced amino acid sequences among T....
