LD1 amplifications in Leishmania.

M Segovia1, G Ortiz.   

Abstract

The genome of Leishmania is quite plastic. Chromosomal rearrangements and DNA amplifications are common events in all the species of the genus. Gene amplification occurs both as a mechanism of drug resistance and in the absence of drug pressure. The best known spontaneous amplification in Leishmania is the so-called LD1 family of amplicons. In the past few years there have been great advances in our knowledge of LD1 elements; here, Manuel Segovia and Ginés Ortiz review all the available data.
