Role of small RNAs in trypanosomatid infections

Trypanosomatid parasites survive and replicate in the host by using mechanisms that aim to establish a successful infection and ensure parasite survival. Evidence points to microRNAs as new players in the host-parasite interplay. MicroRNAs are small noncoding RNAs that control proteins levels via po...
