Partially Overlapping Contributions of Clag Paralogs to Nutrient Uptake Channels in <em>P</em>. <em>falciparum</em>

2024-04-23

Abstract excerpt

Malaria parasites increase their host erythrocyte’s permeability to obtain essential nutrients from plasma and facilitate intracellular growth. In the human P. falciparum pathogen, this increase is mediated by the plasmodial surface anion channel (PSAC) and has been linked to CLAG3, as encoded by one member of the conserved clag multigene family. Whether paralogs encoded by other clag genes also contribute to PSAC...
