Essential role of a Plasmodium berghei heat shock protein (PBANKA_0938300) in gametocyte development
8 Dec 2021
Abstract excerpt
The continued existence of Plasmodium parasites in physiologically distinct environments during their transmission in mosquitoes and vertebrate hosts requires effector proteins encoded by parasite genes to provide adaptability. Parasites utilize their robust stress response system involving heat shock proteins for their survival. Molecular chaperones are involved in maintaining protein homeostasis within a cell...
