10 Jan 2020
Abstract excerpt
Like most eukaryotes the linear chromosomes of the parasite Trypanosoma cruzi end in a nucleoprotein structure called the telomere, which in turn is preceded by regions of variable length called subtelomeres. Together telomeres and subtelomeres are dynamic sites where DNA sequence rearrangements can occur without compromising essential interstitial genes or chromosomal synteny. Good examples of subtelomeres...
