A short interspersed repetitive element provides a new 3′ acceptor site for trans-splicing in certain ribosomal P2β protein genes of Trypanosoma cruzi

Four Trypanosoma cruzi genomic DNA fragments carrying different TcP2β genes have been isolated and sequenced. Three of them had a single TcP2β gene, while the 3.8-kb-long DNA segment encoding the TcP2β-H1.8 locus showed two TcP2β genes arranged in tandem. These genes were physically connected by a 4...
