Female‐specific gene regulation in malaria parasites by an AP2‐family transcription factor
24 Jun 2019
Abstract excerpt
The malaria gametocyte, the gamete precursor, is the essential stage for malaria transmission to the mosquito vector. In the vertebrate host's blood, it develops into a mature male or female capable of transforming into a gamete in the mosquito blood meal. Despite the importance of this stage in the malaria life cycle, the genetic regulation of gametocyte development is poorly understood. In particular,...
