Prevalence of polymorphisms at position 86 of the Pfmdr1 gene in Plasmodium falciparum parasites
Background Malaria is one of the major public health problems in India. The majority of cases are because of Plasmodium falciparum. A sudden increase in chloroquine (CQ) resistance in P. falciparum cases has been noted. Of the various genetic alteration genes known, Pfmdr1 has been shown to be associated with CQ resistance.

Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) in the Pfmdr1, and Pfcrt, genes of Plasmodium falciparum may confer resistance to a number of anti-malaria drugs. Pfmdr1 86Y and haplotypes at Pfcrt 72-76 have been linked to chloroquine (CQ) as well as amodiaquine (

Background: pfmdr1 and its variants are molecular marker which are responsible for antibiotics resistance in Plasmodium falciparum, a parasitic carrier for malaria dis-ease. A novel strategy to treat malaria disease is by disrupting parasite lactate dehy-
