Long read assemblies of geographically dispersed Plasmodium falciparum isolates reveal highly structured subtelomeres

2018-05-03

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> : Although thousands of clinical isolates of Plasmodium falciparum are being sequenced and analysed by short read technology, the data do not resolve the highly variable subtelomeric regions of the genomes that contain polymorphic gene families involved in immune evasion and pathogenesis. There is also no current standard definition of the boundaries of these variable subtelomeric regions....
