    • CIS- AND TRANS-ACTING FACTORS IN MITOCHONDRIAL RNA DECAY 

      READ, LAURIE K. Principal Investigator (2011-04-18)
      DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): In Trypanosoma brucei mitochondria, RNAs are synthesized polycistronically. Nevertheless, levels of mature monocistronic RNAs vary dramatically between life cycle stages. This indicates ...

    • PROTEIN ARGININE METHYLATION IN TRYPANOSOMES 

      READ, LAURIE K. Principal Investigator (2011-04-18)
      DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Protein arginine (arg) methylation is a common posttranslational modification of RNA binding proteins (RNA BPs) in yeast and mammals. In Trypanosoma brucei, gene regulation is largely ...

    • REGULATION OF RNA EDITING IN TRYPANSOMA BRUCEI 

      READ, LAURIE K. Principal Investigator (2011-04-18)
      RNA editing is a novel and essential gene regulatory mechanism in trypanosomes that altersmitochondria! RNAs by specific uridine insertion and deletion to form functional mRNAs. The geneticinformation for editing is ...
