Heat shock modulates the expression of sirtuins and var genes in the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum

2020-04-28

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p><underline>Background:</underline> In the malaria parasite <italic>Plasmodium falciparum</italic> the expression of key ‘<italic>var</italic>’ virulence genes is regulated through epigenetic mechanisms. Two deacetylase enzymes of the sirtuin family have been implicated in this epigenetic control in laboratory-adapted parasites. A previous study of <italic>var</italic> gene expression in...
