Telomere length dynamics in response to DNA damage in malaria parasites

2020-11-09

Abstract excerpt

<h4>SUMMARY</h4> Malaria remains a major cause of morbidity and mortality within the developing world. Recent work has implicated chromosome end stability and the repair of DNA breaks through telomere healing as potent drivers of variant antigen diversification, thus associating basic mechanisms for maintaining genome integrity with aspects of host-parasite interactions. Here we applied long-read sequencing techn...
