The transcriptome of <i>Plasmodium vivax</i> reveals divergence and diversity of transcriptional regulation in malaria parasites

Abstract excerpt

Plasmodium vivax causes over 100 million clinical infections each year. Primarily because of the lack of a suitable culture system, our understanding of the biology of this parasite lags significantly behind that of the more deadly species P. falciparum. Here, we present the complete transcriptional profile throughout the 48-h intraerythrocytic cycle of three distinct P. vivax isolates. This approach identifies...
