A novel computational pipeline for <i>var</i> gene expression augments the discovery of changes in the <i>Plasmodium falciparum</i> transcriptome during transition from <i>in vivo</i> to short-term <i>in vitro</i> culture

Abstract excerpt
The pathogenesis of severe Plasmodium falciparum malaria involves cytoadhesive microvascular sequestration of infected erythrocytes, mediated by P. falciparum erythrocyte membrane protein 1 (PfEMP1). PfEMP1 variants are encoded by the highly polymorphic family of var genes, the sequences of which are largely unknown in clinical samples. Previously, we published new approaches for var gene profiling and classif...
