From:Nature Reviews Microbiology (Vol. 14, Issue 8) Peer-ReviewedPlasmodium parasites, the causative agents of malaria, have developed elaborate strategies that they use to survive and thrive within different intracellular environments. During the blood stage of infection, the...

From:Nature (Vol. 459, Issue 7249) Peer-ReviewedSeveral hundred malaria parasite proteins are exported beyond an encasing vacuole and into the cytosol of the host erythrocyte, a process that is central to the virulence and viability of the causative Plasmodium...

From:PLoS Pathogens (Vol. 11, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedDuring blood stage Plasmodium falciparum infection, merozoites invade uninfected erythrocytes via a complex, multistep process involving a series of distinct receptor-ligand binding events. Understanding each element in...
-
From:PLoS ONE (Vol. 7, Issue 7) Peer-ReviewedThe genomes of Plasmodium parasites that cause malaria in humans, other primates, birds, and rodents all encode multiple 6-cys proteins. Distinct 6-cys protein family members reside on the surface at each extracellular...
-
From:eLife (Vol. 6) Peer-ReviewedPlasmodium falciparum parasites, the causative agents of malaria, modify their host erythrocyte to render them permeable to supplementary nutrient uptake from the plasma and for removal of toxic waste. Here we...

From:BMC Biology (Vol. 13, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedBackground Malaria invasion of red blood cells involves multiple parasite-specific targets that are easily accessible to inhibitory compounds, making it an attractive target for antimalarial development. However, no...

From:PLoS ONE (Vol. 12, Issue 7) Peer-ReviewedMalaria is caused by five different Plasmodium spp. in humans each of which modifies the host erythrocyte to survive and replicate. The two main causes of malaria, P. falciparum and P. vivax, differ in their ability to...
