The genetic organization of the protozoan parasite Leishmania braziliensis, similarly to other trypanosomatids, differs markedly from most eukaryotes. It has a compact genome, and its approximately 9,000 protein-coding genes are transcribed, without canonical promoters, as polycistronic units that rely on trans-splicing for the production of mature mRNAs. This genetic organization largely…
Chagas disease is a neglected illness with higher incidence in Latin America. Gene expression in T. cruzi is regulated mainly by post- transcriptional level, which emphasizes the importance of modifications in cromatin-associated proteins to control this process in trypanosomatids. The involvement of NO in the transcriptional regulation is well established in animal and plant cells and it…
