We describe developmentally regulated genes in two strains of Trypanosoma brucei: the monomorphic strain Lister 427 and the pleomorphic strain TREU927. Expression patterns were obtained using an array of 24,567 genomic fragments. Probes were prepared from bloodstream-form or procyclic-form trypanosomes. Fourteen procyclic-specific and 77 bloodstream-specific signals were obtained from sequences matching variant surface glycoprotein or associated genes, and a further 17 regulated sequences were repetitive or transposable-element-related. Two hundred and eighty-six regulated spots corresponded to mRNAs from other protein-coding genes; these spots represent 191 different proteins. Regulation of 113 different genes (79 from procyclic forms, 34 from bloodstream-forms) was supported by at least two independent experiments or criteria; of these, about 60 were novel. Only two genes -- encoding HSP83 and an importin-related protein -- appeared to be regulated in the TREU927 strain only. Our results confirmed previous estimates that 2% of trypanosome genes show developmental regulation at the mRNA level.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D001769 Blood The body fluid that circulates in the vascular system (BLOOD VESSELS). Whole blood includes PLASMA and BLOOD CELLS.
D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA. Animal,Metazoa,Animalia
D012333 RNA, Messenger RNA sequences that serve as templates for protein synthesis. Bacterial mRNAs are generally primary transcripts in that they do not require post-transcriptional processing. Eukaryotic mRNA is synthesized in the nucleus and must be exported to the cytoplasm for translation. Most eukaryotic mRNAs have a sequence of polyadenylic acid at the 3' end, referred to as the poly(A) tail. The function of this tail is not known for certain, but it may play a role in the export of mature mRNA from the nucleus as well as in helping stabilize some mRNA molecules by retarding their degradation in the cytoplasm.
