Unexpected diversity in U6 snRNA sequences from trypanosomatids.

Gene - 8 Aug 1995

Wieland B, Bindereif A

Abstract excerpt

We have isolated and sequenced the genes for the trans-spliceosomal U6 small nuclear RNAs (snRNAs) from the trypanosomatid species Leishmania mexicana (Lm) and Phytomonas sp. (Ps). Compared with the Trypanosoma brucei (Tb) U6 snRNA, the Lm U6 snRNA contains only a single additional G-C bp in the...
