Plasmodium falciparum liver stage antigen-1 is cross-linked by tissue transglutaminase [PDF]

, 2011
Background Plasmodium falciparum sporozoites injected by mosquitoes into the blood rapidly enter liver hepatocytes and undergo pre-erythrocytic developmental schizogony forming tens of thousands of merozoites per hepatocyte.

Molecular identification of Plasmodium species in symptomatic children of Democratic Republic of Congo

Malaria Journal, 2018
Background Worldwide, the highest malaria mortality is due to Plasmodium falciparum infection. However, other species of Plasmodium (Plasmodium vivax, Plasmodium ovale, Plasmodium malariae, and Plasmodium knowlesi) can also cause malaria.

DNA recovery from used malaria RDT to detect Plasmodium species and to assess Plasmodium falciparum genetic diversity: a pilot study in Madagascar

Malaria Journal, 2022
Background Rapid diagnostic tests (RDT) are widely used for malaria diagnosis in Madagascar, where Plasmodium falciparum is the predominant species. Molecular diagnosis is essential for malaria surveillance, but requires additional blood samples for DNA ...

Isoprenoid Biosynthesis in Plasmodium falciparum [PDF]

Eukaryotic Cell, 2014
ABSTRACT Malaria kills nearly 1 million people each year, and the protozoan parasite Plasmodium falciparum has become increasingly resistant to current therapies. Isoprenoid synthesis via the methylerythritol phosphate (MEP) pathway represents an attractive target for the development of new antimalarials ...

Assembly of Protein‐DNA Framework Nanostructures: Structurally Defining Protein‐DNA Interfaces With Aptamer

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Rationally designed DNA multivalent aptamers direct specific protein binding to drive self‐assembly into protein‐DNA frameworks (PDFs). Structurally defined protein‐aptamer interfaces organize proteins into triangles, linear and ladderlike chains, and periodic two‐dimensional arrays, enabling precise control over orientation, connectivity, and overall ...

Protein Sorting in Plasmodium Falciparum [PDF]

Life, 2021
Plasmodium falciparum is a unicellular eukaryote with a very polarized secretory system composed of micronemes rhoptries and dense granules that are required for host cell invasion. P. falciparum, like its relative T. gondii, uses the endolysosomal system to produce the secretory organelles and to ingest host cell proteins.
