Homologous 3'-terminal regions of mRNAs for surface antigens of different antigenic variants of Trypanosoma brucei

Abstract

Sequences corresponding to the complete 3'-terminal regions of the messenger RNAs for three different Variant Surface Glycoproteins of Trypanosoma brucei were determined on complementary DNA inserts cloned in recombinant plasmids. The three sequences show 80-130 base pair long segments of strong (70-80%) homology at the 3' ends, whereas ther regions upstream from the last 130-140 base pairs contain no significant homology. The signal AAUAAA, present near the 3' ends of almost all known polyadenylated mRNAs of eukaryotes, does not occur in the 3'-terminal sequences of these three variants.

African Trypanosomiasis

African trypanosomiasis, also known as sleeping sickness, is an insect-borne parasitic disease of humans and other animals. It is caused by protozoa of the species Trypanosoma brucei and almost invariably progresses to death unless treated. Discover the latest research on African trypanosomiasis here.
