Role for the<i>Plasmodium</i>sporozoite-specific transmembrane protein S6 in parasite motility and efficient malaria transmission

17 Oct 2008

Abstract excerpt

Malaria transmission occurs by intradermal deposition of Plasmodium sporozoites during the infectious bite of a female Anopheles mosquito. After formation in midgut-associated oocysts sporozoites actively enter mosquito salivary glands and subsequently invade host hepatocytes where they transform into clinically silent liver stages. To date, two sporozoite-specific transmembrane proteins have been identified that...
