De novo assembly of plasmodium interspersed repeat (pir) genes from Plasmodium vivax RNAseq data suggests geographic conservation of sub-family transcription

2025-04-17

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p><bold>Background</bold>: The <italic>plasmodium interspersed repeats</italic> (<italic>pir</italic>) multigene family is found across malaria parasite genomes, first discovered in the human-infecting species <italic>Plasmodium vivax</italic>, where they were initially named the <italic>vir</italic>s. Their function remains unknown, although studies have suggested a role in virulence of...
