Extensive stage-regulation of translation revealed by ribosome profiling of Trypanosoma brucei
20 Oct 2014
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Trypanosoma brucei subspecies infect humans and animals in sub-Saharan Africa. This early diverging eukaryote shows many novel features in basic biological processes, including the use of polycistronic transcription to generate all protein-coding mRNAs. Therefore we hypothesized that translational control provides a means to tune gene expression during parasite development in mammalian and fly hosts....
