Pneumocystis
Genomics Site
The goals of this project will be to provide physical maps and gene sequences
for the entire genomes of 2 populations of Pneumocystis, Pneumocystis carinii f.
sp. carinii (from rat) and P. carinii f. sp. hominis (from human), to understand
better their molecular structure and develop publicly available, centralized information
and reagents that will be used to expedite research.
