Abstract
The article presents a study which explores how long noncoding RNA promotes parasite differentiation in African trypanosomes. It mentions that parasite differentiation from a replicative slender form into a quiescent stumpy form promotes host survival and parasite transmission. It discusses the use of RNA sequencing to survey the T. brucei genome, identifying 1428 previously uncharacterized lncRNA genes in the study.
