Mobile Genetic Elements in Metazoan Parasites (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Substantial proportions of the genome of most eukaryotes, including those of metazoan parasites, are comprised of repetitive sequences. Mobile genetic elements (MGEs) constitute much of the repetitive component, particularly the interspersed sequences. This volume of nine chapters addresses MGEs that have colonized the genomes of medically importan
