Mitochondrial ATP synthesis is essential for efficient gametogenesis in <i>Plasmodium falciparum</i>

2024-04-23

Abstract excerpt

Interrupting parasite transmission from humans to mosquitoes is vital for malaria elimination and eradication. Plasmodium male and female gametocytes are the gatekeepers of human to mosquito transmission. Whilst dormant in the human host, their divergent roles during transmission become visually apparent soon after ingestion by the mosquito after rapid transformation into gametes – the males forming eight motile...
