abstract：:U6 RNA genes from the trypanosomatids Crithidia fasciculata and Leptomonas seymouri have been isolated and sequenced. As in Trypanosoma brucei, the U6 RNA genes in both C. fasciculata and L. seymouri are arranged in close linkage with upstream tRNA genes. The U6 RNA sequences from C. fasciculata and L. seymouri deviat...
