Medium-range restriction maps of five chromosomes of Leishmania infantum and localization of size-variable regions.

Genomics - 1 Aug 1996

Abstract excerpt

The chromosomes of the human protozoan parasite Leishmania exhibit striking size polymorphisms among different strains. To define the structural basis for these variations, we have constructed full-length restriction maps of five chromosomes of 370 to 490 kb in Leishmania infantum clone LEM1317. Rare-cutting sites for the enzymes AseI, DraI, XbaI, SspI, SpeI, and SfiI were mapped by partial and complete digestion...
