The genome sequence of Trypanosoma cruzi, etiologic agent of Chagas disease.

The genome sequence of Trypanosoma cruzi, etiologic agent of Chagas disease.

Whole-genome sequencing of the protozoan pathogen Trypanosoma cruzi revealed that the diploid genome contains a predicted 22,570 proteins encoded by genes, of which 12,570 represent allelic pairs. Over 50% of the genome consists of repeated sequences, such as retrotransposons and genes for large fam...
