Trypanosoma cruzi Has 32 Chromosomes: A Telomere-to-Telomere Assembly Defines Its Karyotype.
2025-04-01
Abstract excerpt
Trypanosoma cruzi, the causative agent of Chagas disease, exhibits remarkable genomic variability and possesses an expanded genome rich in multigene families. However, its precise chromosomal composition has remained elusive due to the challenges posed by extensive repetitive regions. Using PacBio HiFi long-read sequencing, we assembled the complete nuclear genome of the Dm28c strain into 32 telomere-to-telomere c...
