Liaisons dangereuses: sexual recombination among pathogenic trypanosomes.

Research in microbiology - 1 Jan 2000

Gibson Wendy

Abstract excerpt

Sexual recombination between pathogenic microbes has the potential to mobilise genes for harmful traits into new genetic backgrounds creating new pathogen strains. Since 1986 we have known that genetic exchange can occur in trypanosomes, but we are only now starting to unravel details of the process. In Trypanosoma brucei genetic exchange occurs in the tsetse vector, but is not an obligatory part of the life...
