Figure 4

Schematic representation of pTvLUC vector constructs (A); TvPRAC5′UTR, upstream of the TvPRAC region and containing spliced leader acceptor site; Tubαβ, intergenic region between alpha and beta tubulin genes; NeoR, neomycin phosphotransferase gene; Tubβα, intergenic region between β and α tubulin genes. Representation of the ribosomal promoter region cloned into pTv-Luc and associated luminescence in Relative Light Units (RLU) detected in the supernatant 48 h after epimastigote transfection with pTvSrDNA-Luc and pTvLrDNA-Luc (B).
