Abstract
We describe an unprecedented finding of an open reading frame present in th e variable region in one of the minicircle sequence classes of a human path ogenic strain of Leishmania donovani (MHOM/IN/90/RMRI 68) which is transcri bed and translated. The encoded protein showed homologies to known transpor t proteins. (C) 1999 Published by Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved .
