Ribosomal RNA gene organization in Cryptosporidium parvum
1 Dec 1997
Abstract excerpt
The cytoplasmic ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes of the Apicomplexan protozoan parasite Cryptosporidium parvum have been analyzed with respect to size, copy number, organization and structure. The small and large subunit rRNAs are 1.7 and 3.6 kb, respectively. A 151 bp putative 5.8S rRNA gene was identified. The rDNA unit is 5' small subunit rRNA internal transcribed spacer 1-5.8S rRNA-internal transcribed spacer...
