Differential trypanosome surface coat regulation by a CCCH protein that co-associates with procyclin mRNA cis-elements.

The genome of Trypanosoma brucei is unusual in being regulated almost entirely at the post-transcriptional level. In terms of regulation, the best-studied genes are procyclins, which encode a family of major surface GPI-anchored glycoproteins (EP1, EP2, EP3, GPEET) that show differential expression...
