      abstract = {To progress through their normal developmental cycle,  Leishmania and related kinetoplastid parasites must sense  and respond to extreme fluctuations in the host  environment. Gene expression in kinetoplastids is divergent  from other eukaryotes in that transcription is not  controlled on an individual gene basis. Consequently,  post-transcriptional control points such as mRNA stability  and translation have been elevated as key determinants of  regulation. As with higher eukaryotes, these processes are  governed primarily by the interactions of cis-acting  elements in mRNA and trans-acting RNA-binding proteins  (RBPs). Considerable effort has therefore been devoted to  the study of such elements in kinetoplastids; however, few  have been implicated in the context of specific  stress-response pathways.},
