Thermal and non-thermal stress conditions activate the <i>Plasmodium falciparum</i> AP2-HS-dependent heat-shock response

2025-11-24

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> To preserve proteome homeostasis and survive at higher-than-optimal temperatures, organisms have evolved the conserved heat shock (HS) response (HSR), characterised by increased expression of specific chaperone-encoding genes. In the human blood, malaria parasites are frequently exposed to elevated temperatures associated with host fever episodes. The protective HSR of Plasmodium falciparum , t...
