    Description: Leishmania species cause a spectrum of human diseases in tropical and subtropical regions of the world. We have sequenced the 36 chromosomes of the 32.8-megabase haploid genome of Leishmania major (Friedlin strain) and predict 911 RNA genes, 39 pseudogenes, and 8272 protein-coding genes, of which 36% can be ascribed a putative function. These include genes involved in host-pathogen interactions, such as proteolytic enzymes, and extensive machinery for synthesis of complex surface glycoconjugates. The organization of protein-coding genes into long, strand-specific, polycistronic clusters and lack of general transcription factors in the L. major, Trypanosoma brucei, and Trypanosoma cruzi (Tritryp) genomes suggest that the mechanisms regulating RNA polymerase II-directed transcription are distinct from those operating in other eukaryotes, although the trypanosomatids appear capable of chromatin remodeling. Abundant RNA-binding proteins are encoded in the Tritryp genomes, consistent with active posttranscriptional regulation of gene expression.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1470643/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1470643/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Ivens, Alasdair C -- Peacock, Christopher S -- Worthey, Elizabeth A -- Murphy, Lee -- Aggarwal, Gautam -- Berriman, Matthew -- Sisk, Ellen -- Rajandream, Marie-Adele -- Adlem, Ellen -- Aert, Rita -- Anupama, Atashi -- Apostolou, Zina -- Attipoe, Philip -- Bason, Nathalie -- Bauser, Christopher -- Beck, Alfred -- Beverley, Stephen M -- Bianchettin, Gabriella -- Borzym, Katja -- Bothe, Gordana -- Bruschi, Carlo V -- Collins, Matt -- Cadag, Eithon -- Ciarloni, Laura -- Clayton, Christine -- Coulson, Richard M R -- Cronin, Ann -- Cruz, Angela K -- Davies, Robert M -- De Gaudenzi, Javier -- Dobson, Deborah E -- Duesterhoeft, Andreas -- Fazelina, Gholam -- Fosker, Nigel -- Frasch, Alberto Carlos -- Fraser, Audrey -- Fuchs, Monika -- Gabel, Claudia -- Goble, Arlette -- Goffeau, Andre -- Harris, David -- Hertz-Fowler, Christiane -- Hilbert, Helmut -- Horn, David -- Huang, Yiting -- Klages, Sven -- Knights, Andrew -- Kube, Michael -- Larke, Natasha -- Litvin, Lyudmila -- Lord, Angela -- Louie, Tin -- Marra, Marco -- Masuy, David -- Matthews, Keith -- Michaeli, Shulamit -- Mottram, Jeremy C -- Muller-Auer, Silke -- Munden, Heather -- Nelson, Siri -- Norbertczak, Halina -- Oliver, Karen -- O'neil, Susan -- Pentony, Martin -- Pohl, Thomas M -- Price, Claire -- Purnelle, Benedicte -- Quail, Michael A -- Rabbinowitsch, Ester -- Reinhardt, Richard -- Rieger, Michael -- Rinta, Joel -- Robben, Johan -- Robertson, Laura -- Ruiz, Jeronimo C -- Rutter, Simon -- Saunders, David -- Schafer, Melanie -- Schein, Jacquie -- Schwartz, David C -- Seeger, Kathy -- Seyler, Amber -- Sharp, Sarah -- Shin, Heesun -- Sivam, Dhileep -- Squares, Rob -- Squares, Steve -- Tosato, Valentina -- Vogt, Christy -- Volckaert, Guido -- Wambutt, Rolf -- Warren, Tim -- Wedler, Holger -- Woodward, John -- Zhou, Shiguo -- Zimmermann, Wolfgang -- Smith, Deborah F -- Blackwell, Jenefer M -- Stuart, Kenneth D -- Barrell, Bart -- Myler, Peter J -- R01 AI040599/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- R01 AI053667/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- U01 AI040599/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2005 Jul 15;309(5733):436-42.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute, Wellcome Trust Genome Campus, Hinxton, Cambridgeshire CB10 1SA, UK. alicat@sanger.ac.uk〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16020728" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: African trypanosomes cause human sleeping sickness and livestock trypanosomiasis in sub-Saharan Africa. We present the sequence and analysis of the 11 megabase-sized chromosomes of Trypanosoma brucei. The 26-megabase genome contains 9068 predicted genes, including approximately 900 pseudogenes and approximately 1700 T. brucei-specific genes. Large subtelomeric arrays contain an archive of 806 variant surface glycoprotein (VSG) genes used by the parasite to evade the mammalian immune system. Most VSG genes are pseudogenes, which may be used to generate expressed mosaic genes by ectopic recombination. Comparisons of the cytoskeleton and endocytic trafficking systems with those of humans and other eukaryotic organisms reveal major differences. A comparison of metabolic pathways encoded by the genomes of T. brucei, T. cruzi, and Leishmania major reveals the least overall metabolic capability in T. brucei and the greatest in L. major. Horizontal transfer of genes of bacterial origin has contributed to some of the metabolic differences in these parasites, and a number of novel potential drug targets have been identified.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Berriman, Matthew -- Ghedin, Elodie -- Hertz-Fowler, Christiane -- Blandin, Gaelle -- Renauld, Hubert -- Bartholomeu, Daniella C -- Lennard, Nicola J -- Caler, Elisabet -- Hamlin, Nancy E -- Haas, Brian -- Bohme, Ulrike -- Hannick, Linda -- Aslett, Martin A -- Shallom, Joshua -- Marcello, Lucio -- Hou, Lihua -- Wickstead, Bill -- Alsmark, U Cecilia M -- Arrowsmith, Claire -- Atkin, Rebecca J -- Barron, Andrew J -- Bringaud, Frederic -- Brooks, Karen -- Carrington, Mark -- Cherevach, Inna -- Chillingworth, Tracey-Jane -- Churcher, Carol -- Clark, Louise N -- Corton, Craig H -- Cronin, Ann -- Davies, Rob M -- Doggett, Jonathon -- Djikeng, Appolinaire -- Feldblyum, Tamara -- Field, Mark C -- Fraser, Audrey -- Goodhead, Ian -- Hance, Zahra -- Harper, David -- Harris, Barbara R -- Hauser, Heidi -- Hostetler, Jessica -- Ivens, Al -- Jagels, Kay -- Johnson, David -- Johnson, Justin -- Jones, Kristine -- Kerhornou, Arnaud X -- Koo, Hean -- Larke, Natasha -- Landfear, Scott -- Larkin, Christopher -- Leech, Vanessa -- Line, Alexandra -- Lord, Angela -- Macleod, Annette -- Mooney, Paul J -- Moule, Sharon -- Martin, David M A -- Morgan, Gareth W -- Mungall, Karen -- Norbertczak, Halina -- Ormond, Doug -- Pai, Grace -- Peacock, Chris S -- Peterson, Jeremy -- Quail, Michael A -- Rabbinowitsch, Ester -- Rajandream, Marie-Adele -- Reitter, Chris -- Salzberg, Steven L -- Sanders, Mandy -- Schobel, Seth -- Sharp, Sarah -- Simmonds, Mark -- Simpson, Anjana J -- Tallon, Luke -- Turner, C Michael R -- Tait, Andrew -- Tivey, Adrian R -- Van Aken, Susan -- Walker, Danielle -- Wanless, David -- Wang, Shiliang -- White, Brian -- White, Owen -- Whitehead, Sally -- Woodward, John -- Wortman, Jennifer -- Adams, Mark D -- Embley, T Martin -- Gull, Keith -- Ullu, Elisabetta -- Barry, J David -- Fairlamb, Alan H -- Opperdoes, Fred -- Barrell, Barclay G -- Donelson, John E -- Hall, Neil -- Fraser, Claire M -- Melville, Sara E -- El-Sayed, Najib M -- AI43062/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- R01 AI043062/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- U01 AI043062/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2005 Jul 15;309(5733):416-22.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute, Wellcome Trust Genome Campus, Hinxton CB10 1SA, UK. mb4@sanger.ac.uk〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16020726" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
