The Impact of Mutation and Gene Conversion on the Local Diversification of Antigen Genes in African Trypanosomes

Patterns of genetic diversity in parasite antigen gene families hold important information about their potential to generate antigenic variation within and between hosts. The evolution of such gene families is typically driven by gene duplication, followed by point mutation and gene conversion. Ther...
