Leishmania tarentolae (Parrot Tar II) genome and proteome

This dataset contains the genome sequence for Leishmania tarentolae (Parrot Tar II). This genome sequence was de novo assembled using the PacBio RSII system by Goto et al (2020. PMID: 32439660).  The genome was assembled into 179 chromosomes, of which 57 were assigned to specific chromosomes (1 to 36). In addition to the genome Fasta file, the Fasta files for 8703 protein-coding sequences and their corresponding protein sequences are also included in this dataset. The three Fasta files included in this dataset were downloaded from GenBank (assembly GCA_009731335.1; June 9, 2026).
