<i>Plasmodium</i> PIMMS43 is required for ookinete evasion of the mosquito complement-like response and sporogonic development in the oocyst

Abstract excerpt
Malaria transmission requires Plasmodium parasites to successfully infect a female Anopheles mosquito, surviving a series of robust innate immune responses. Understanding how parasites evade these responses can highlight new ways to block malaria transmission. We show that ookinete and sporozoite surface protein PIMMS43 is required for Plasmodium ookinete evasion of the Anopheles coluzzii complement-like syste...
