Genomic Organization and Generation of Genetic Variability in the RHS (Retrotransposon Hot Spot) Protein Multigene Family in <i>Trypanosoma cruzi</i>

Genomic Organization and Generation of Genetic Variability in the RHS (Retrotransposon Hot Spot) Protein Multigene Family in <i>Trypanosoma cruzi</i>

Retrotransposon Hot Spot (RHS) is the most abundant gene family in <i>Trypanosoma cruzi,</i> with unknown function in this parasite. The aim of this work was to shed light on the organization and expression of RHS in <i>T. cruzi.</i> The diversity of the RHS protein family in...
