Monoallelic expression and epigenetic inheritance sustained by a Trypanosoma brucei variant surface glycoprotein exclusion complex
Monoallelic expression of variant surface glycoprotein genes (VSGs) is essential for immune evasion by Trypanosoma brucei. Here, Faria et al. show that the VEX protein complex controls VSG allelic exclusion, and that CAF‐1 sustains inheritance of the VEX‐complex in association with the active VSG....
