We have previously demonstrated that glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchors strongly influence protein trafficking in the procyclic insect stage of Trypanosoma brucei (M. A. McDowell, D.

We have previously shown that the poly(A) polymerase (PAP) gene of Trypanosoma brucei is interrupted by an intervening sequence. It was postulated that removing this intron by cis-splicing requires a yet unidentified U1 small nuclear RNA (snRNA), which in other organisms engages in base-pair interactions across the 5' splice site during early spliceosome assembly. Here we present a characterization of a 75 nucleotide long candidate T.
