Transcriptomic analysis of diplomonad parasites reveals a trans-spliced intron in a helicase gene in Giardia

Background The mechanisms by which DNA sequences are expressed is the central preoccupation of molecular genetics. Recently, ourselves and others reported that in the diplomonad protist Giardia lamblia, the coding regions of several mRNAs are produced by ligation of independent RNA species expressed...
