Population Genetics of Trypanosoma brucei gambiense: A Clone in the Dark
Human African trypanosomiasis (HAT) (or sleeping sickness) due to Trypanosoma brucei gambiense) occurs in Western and Central Africa. T. brucei s.l. displays a huge diversity of adaptations and host specificities, and questions about its reproductive mode, dispersal abilities, and effective size remain under debate.

Characterization of Trypanosoma brucei gambiense variant surface glycoprotein LiTat 1.5.
At present, all available diagnostic antibody detection tests for Trypanosoma brucei gambiense human African trypanosomiasis are based on predominant variant surface glycoproteins (VSGs), such as VSG LiTat 1.5. During investigations aiming at replacement of the native VSGs by recombinant proteins or synthetic peptides, the sequence of VSG LiTat 1 ...
