We focus on the structure and function of RNA molecules that participate in RNA processing trans-splicing that is unique to these parasites. We are interested in the structure and function of novel anti-sense non-coding RNAs and the mechanism of a novel RNAi silencing event discovered in our laboratory, snoRNAi, which silences nucleolar RNAs. Recently, we discovered a novel stress-induced mechanism that silences the production of mRNA by abolishing trans-splicing that leads to apoptosis.  We term this process SLS, and plan to identify chemical compounds that elicit this death pathway as potential chemotherapy.
