The RRM-mediated RNA binding activity in T. brucei RAP1 is essential for VSG monoallelic expression
Trypanosoma brucei is a protozoan parasite that causes human African trypanosomiasis. Its major surface antigen VSG is expressed from subtelomeric loci in a strictly monoallelic manner. We previously showed that the telomere protein TbRAP1 binds dsDNA through its (737)RKRRR(741) patch to silence VSG...
