Expression and evolution of members of the Trypanosoma cruzi trypomastigote surface antigen multigene family.

Molecular and biochemical parasitology - 1 Jan 1994

Ruef B J, Dawson B D, Tewari D, Fouts D L, Manning J E

Abstract excerpt

The trypomastigote specific surface antigens of Trypanosoma cruzi are encoded by a supergene family which includes the TSA family. The TSA family is characterized by the presence of a 27-bp tandem repeat array in the coding region. Here, we report the characterization and analysis of the three TSA family members in the Esmeraldo strain of the parasite. In this strain 2 distinct telomeric members are expressed...
