The <i>Plasmodium falciparum</i> CCCH zinc finger protein ZNF4 plays an important role in gametocyte exflagellation through the regulation of male gametocyte enriched transcripts

Abstract excerpt
CCCH zinc finger proteins (ZFPs) function mainly as RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) where they play a central role in the mRNA metabolism. Over 27 CCCH-ZFPs are encoded in the genome of the human malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum , the causative agent of malaria tropica. However, little is known about their functions. In this study, we characterize one member of the PfCCCH-ZFP named ZNF4. We show that ZNF4 is hi...
