Upstream Open Reading Frames (uORFs) in the Apicomplexan Parasites <em>Plasmodium falciparum</em> and <em>Toxoplasma gondii</em>: Small yet Powerful Regulators of Translation

2021-04-26

Abstract excerpt

During their complex life cycles, the Apicomplexan parasites, Plasmodium falciparum and Toxoplasma gondii employ several genetic switches to regulate their gene expression. One such switch is mediated at the level of translation through upstream Open Reading Frames (uORFs). As uORFs are found in the upstream regions of a majority of genes in both the parasites, it is essential that their roles in translational reg...
