Novel Ion Channel Genes in Malaria Parasites
2024-02-07
Abstract excerpt
Ion channels serve many cellular functions including ion homeostasis, volume regulation, signaling, nutrient acquisition, and developmental progression. Although the complex lifecycles of malaria parasites necessitate ion and solute flux across membranes, whole genome sequencing of the human pathogen, Plasmodium falciparum, revealed remarkably few orthologs of known ion channel genes. Contrasting with this, bioche...
