A single pseudouridine on rRNA regulates ribosome structure and function in the mammalian parasite Trypanosoma brucei

Abstract Trypanosomes are protozoan parasites that cycle between insect and mammalian hosts and are the causative agent of sleeping sickness. Here, we describe the changes of pseudouridine (Ψ) modification on rRNA in the two life stages of the parasite using four different genome-wide approaches. CR...
