Expression site

Expression site

The location in the genome of the gene for the variable surface glycoprotein that is currently being expressed (an expression-linked copy) by the trypanosome (a parasitic protozoan which causes the disease african sleeping sickness). most of these sites are near the ends, or telomeres, of a chromosome.
