Abstract excerpt
Each variant surface glycoprotein (Vsg) expression site (ES) in bloodstream-form Trypanosoma brucei is a polycistronic transcription unit containing several distinct expression site-associated genes (esag), in addition to a single vsg gene. esag1 genes from different ESs encode a highly polymorph...
