Abstract excerpt
In Trypanosoma cruzi approximately 90% of the 121- and 176-kDa cytoskeletal proteins encoded by the two alleles of the TCR27 gene is composed of 14-amino-acid repeats. To gain insight into the function of the TCR27 proteins we replaced the corresponding regions of 42-nucleotide repeats in the two alleles with the NEOr and HYGr genes. Analyses of DNAs and RNAs from four clones resistant to both G418, a neomycin...
