TERRA (Telomeric Repeat-Containing RNA) is a non-coding RNA transcribed from the subtelomeric regions of the C-rich strand, playing an important role in regulating telomere structure and function. It is present in various eukaryotes, including humans and yeasts. Recent findings from our group indicate that TERRA in Leishmania major, one of the etiological agents of leishmaniasis, may infl…
