[Reduction of the edited domain of the mitochondrial A6 gene for ATPase subunit 6 in Trypanosomatidae].
The sequence of mitochondrial A6 (MURF4) was compared for several trypanosomatids in order to assess the reduction of the edited domain (ED). The association between the ED reduction and the phylogenetic position of a species proved to be less tight than believed earlier. Compared with digenetic species, monogenetic ones more often displayed ED reduction and had smaller ED.
