A long non-coding RNA controls parasite differentiation in African trypanosomes

2020-05-03

Abstract excerpt

Trypanosoma brucei causes African sleeping sickness, a fatal human disease. Its differentiation from replicative slender form into quiescent stumpy form promotes host survival and parasite transmission. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are known to regulate cell differentiation. To determine whether lncRNAs are involved in parasite differentiation we used RNAseq to survey the T. brucei lncRNA gene repertoire, identi...
