Nuclear acetyl-CoA production by acetyl-CoA synthetase enables dynamic histone acetylation and gene expression in <i>Plasmodium falciparum</i>
2026-07-17
Abstract excerpt
A complex transcriptional cascade drives the two-day intraerythrocytic developmental cycle of the most virulent human malaria parasite, Plasmodium falciparum , in the human host. Genes are rapidly activated at specific times, then silenced as quickly. Transcriptional activity correlates with histone acetylation, which is modulated by acetyltransferases that use acetyl-CoA and deacetylases that produce acetate. Ac...
