Abstract excerpt
The full-length cDNA sequences of three variable surface glycoproteins from bloodstream forms of Trypanosoma congolense have been determined. They encode preproteins of 429, 449, and 428 amino acids. These proteins contain the typical N-terminal leader sequences of secreted eukaryotic proteins, and display hydrophobic amino acids at their C-termini characteristic of variable surface glycoproteins; these leader...
