<i>Plasmodium falciparum</i> Calcium Dependent Protein Kinase 4 is critical for male gametogenesis and transmission to the mosquito vector

2021-06-06

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Gametocytes of the malaria parasite Plasmodium are taken up by the mosquito vector with an infectious blood meal, representing a critical stage for parasite transmission. Calcium dependent protein kinases (CDPKs) play key roles in calcium-mediated signaling across the complex life cycle of the parasite. We sought to understand their role in human parasite transmission from the host to the mosqu...
