Abstract excerpt
<h4>Summary</h4> Chagas disease is estimated to affect 8 million people worldwide and is responsible for circa 10,000 deaths in Latin America every year. Vector control has been developed as the main strategy to control disease spreading. The identification of new targets is essential, and genes containing small open reading frames (smORFs - < 100 amino acids) are present as hundreds of putative new candidate tar...
