Sensitive molecular markers that specifically detect Tbg type 1 (Tbg1) parasites will be important tools to assist in reaching this goal. We aim at improving molecular diagnosis of Tbg1 infections by targeting the abundant mitochondrial minicircles within the kinetoplast of these parasites. Using Next-Generation Sequencing of total cellular DNA extracts, we assembled and annotated the kinetoplast genome and investigated minicircle sequence diversity in 38 animal- and human-infective trypanosome strains. Computational analyses recognized a total of 241 Minicircle Sequence Classes as Tbg1-specific, of which three were shared by the 18 studied Tbg1 strains. We developed a minicircle-based assay that is applicable on animals and as specific as the TgsGP-based assay, the current golden standard for molecular detection of Tbg1. The median copy number of the targeted minicircle was equal to eight, suggesting our minicircle-based assay may be used for the sensitive detection of Tbg1 parasites. Annotation of the targeted minicircle sequence indicated that it encodes genes essential for the survival of the parasite and will thus likely be preserved in natural Tbg1 populations, the latter ensuring the reliability of our novel diagnostic assay.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/nargab\/lqac081","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,10,20]],"date-time":"2022-10-20T05:55:11Z","timestamp":1666245311000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":8,"title":["Deep kinetoplast genome analyses result in a novel molecular assay for detecting\n                    <i>Trypanosoma brucei gambiense<\/i>\n                    -specific minicircles"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"4","author":[{"given":"Manon","family":"Geerts","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biomedical Sciences, Institute of Tropical Medicine , 2000 Antwerp, Belgium"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Zihao","family":"Chen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Immunology and Infection Research, University of Edinburgh , Edinburgh EH9 3FL, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Nicolas","family":"Bebronne","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biomedical Sciences, Institute of Tropical Medicine , 2000 Antwerp, Belgium"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Nicholas J","family":"Savill","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Immunology and Infection Research, University of Edinburgh , Edinburgh EH9 3FL, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2132-5560","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Achim","family":"Schnaufer","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Immunology and Infection Research, University of Edinburgh , Edinburgh EH9 3FL, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Philippe","family":"B\u00fcscher","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biomedical Sciences, Institute of Tropical Medicine , 2000 Antwerp, Belgium"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Nick","family":"Van\u00a0Reet","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biomedical Sciences, Institute of Tropical Medicine , 2000 Antwerp, Belgium"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2542-5585","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Frederik","family":"Van\u00a0den\u00a0Broeck","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biomedical Sciences, Institute of Tropical Medicine , 2000 Antwerp, Belgium"},{"name":"Department of Microbiology, Immunology and Transplantation, Rega Institute for Medical Research , Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, 3000 Leuven, Belgium"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,10,20]]},"reference":[{"key":"2022102008181609600_B1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"255","DOI":"10.1016\/0169-4758(86)90011-6","article-title":"Will the real Trypanosomagambiense please stand up","volume":"2","author":"Gibson","year":"1986","journal-title":"Parasitol.
