Abstract excerpt
Modern data on genic organization and transcription of the mitochondrial genome in various trypanosomatids are reviewed, detailed genetical and transcriptional maps of the maxi-circle DNA being presented. A novel mechanism of the transcript processing in trypanosomatids, a so-called editing of mitochondrial RNAs, is especially emphasized. The phenomenon of the maxi-circle genome transcription initiation is...
