Zinc-Finger Nuclease (ZFN)-mediated editing of pfcrt.
(A) The pfcrt gene was edited using a two-plasmid approach, one containing the donor and the other expressing the pfcrt-specific ZFN. Parasites were selected on WR99210 and blasticidin (BSD) and cloned by limiting dilution.

Predicted topologies of PfMDR1 and PfCRT.
(a) PfMDR1 consists of 1,419 amino acid residues that are arranged into 12 TMDs and 2 NBDs. The length of the loops shown surrounding the NBDs are approximate. (b) PfCRT consists of 424 amino acid residues that are arranged into 10 TMDs.

Genome‐Guided Discovery of Antimalarial 4‐Amino‐2,4‐Pentadienoate‐Containing Cyclolipodepsipeptides
Halogenated and glycosylated 4‐amino‐2,4‐pentadienoate‐containing cyclolipodepsipeptides (APD‐CLDs) exhibit potent antiplasmodial activity (IC50 = 25–161 nM) against drug‐sensitive and resistant Plasmodium falciparum strains. ABSTRACT 4‐Amino‐2,4‐pentadienoate‐containing cyclolipodepsipeptides (APD‐CLDs) represent a structurally distinctive family of ...

High prevalence of PfCRT K76T mutation in Plasmodium falciparum isolates in Ghana [PDF]
Plasmodium falciparum has successfully developed resistance to almost all currently used antimalarials. A single nucleotide polymorphism in the P. falciparum chloroquine resistance transporter (Pfcrt) gene at position 76 resulting in a change in coding from lysine to threonine (K76T) has been implicated to be the corner stone of chloroquine resistance.

A comparative analysis reveals electrogenic properties of PfCRT and pendrin. [PDF]
Ion translocation is an essential process in all living cells. Most traditional approaches studying ion-translocating systems have employed cellular systems replete with native proteins that potentially interfere with the functional assessment of the protein of interest.

Genetics of chloroquine-resistant malaria: a haplotypic view
The development and rapid spread of chloroquine resistance (CQR) in Plasmodium falciparum have triggered the identification of several genetic target(s) in the P. falciparum genome.

FACTORS ASSOCIATED WITH REGIONAL BIAS OF PFCRT (PLASMODIUM FALCIPARUM CHLOROQUINE RESISTANCE TRANSPORTER) HAPLOTYPES IN NAPAL [PDF]
. Evidences of reappearance of chloroquine sensitive Plasmodium falciparum haplotypes after cessation of chloroquine in many countries provide a rationale for the search of chloroquine sensitive haplotypes in P. falciparum isolates in Nepal where the use

Different patterns of pfcrt and pfmdr1 polymorphism in Plasmodium falciparum isolates from Tehama region, Yemen [PDF]
Introduction. Despite the efforts of the malaria control programme, malaria morbidity is still a common health problem in Yemen, with 60% of the population at risk. Plasmodium falciparum is responsible for 99% of malaria cases.
