abstract：:In Trypanosoma brucei, the mutually exclusive expression of the major surface antigens, the variant surface glycoprotein (VSG) of the bloodstream form and procyclin of the procyclic form, is due to a stage-specific accumulation of the respective mRNAs. Through the targeting of a reporter construct in the procyclin pro...
