An evolutionary perspective on the kinome of malaria parasites [PDF]
Malaria parasites belong to an ancient lineage that diverged very early from the main branch of eukaryotes. The approximately 90-member plasmodial kinome includes a majority of eukaryotic protein kinases that clearly cluster within the AGC, CMGC, TKL ...

Introduction. Malaria is the sixth leading cause of death worldwide. According to a WHO survey (2019-2020), the total number of malaria deaths is estimated to be 409000. Plasmodium falciparum and Plasmodium vivax are major malaria parasites, particularly

Plasmodium falciparum glutamate dehydrogenase a is dispensable and not a drug target during erythrocytic development [PDF]
<p>Background: Plasmodium falciparum contains three genes encoding potential glutamate dehydrogenases. The protein encoded by gdha has previously been biochemically and structurally characterized.

Gametocytogenesis: the puberty of Plasmodium falciparum.
The protozoan Plasmodium falciparum has a complex life cycle in which asexual multiplication in the vertebrate host alternates with an obligate sexual reproduction in the anopheline mosquito. Apart from the apparent recombination advantages conferred by sex, P.

Drug resistance mediating Plasmodium falciparum polymorphisms and clinical presentations of parasitaemic children in Uganda. [PDF]
BackgroundPlasmodium falciparum genetic polymorphisms that mediate altered drug sensitivity may impact upon virulence. In a cross-sectional study, Ugandan children with infections mutant at pfcrt K76T, pfmdr1 N86Y, or pfmdr1 D1246Y had about one-fourth ...

Human Infections with Plasmodium knowlesi, the Philippines. [PDF]
Five human cases of infection with the simian malaria parasite Plasmodium knowlesi from Palawan, the Philippines, were confirmed by nested PCR. This study suggests that this zoonotic infection is found across a relatively wide area in Palawan and ...
