Analysis of the functions and interactions of RAD51 paralogues in Trypanosoma brucei
Trypanosoma brucei evades host acquired immunity by antigenic variation, involving periodic switches in the variant surface glycoprotein (VSG) coat. DNA recombination is critical in this process and a key component of homologous recombination, RAD51, also plays a role in VSG switching. T. brucei enc...
