Abstract :
The trypanosomes are a class of eukaryotic parasites that diverged from Saccharomyces cerevisiae about 800 million years ago. Many possible gene structures are present within these genomes but most appear to be non-functional and do not code for proteins. Initial analyses of these genomes suggest that over 70% of the putative genes have no biological function.
