Plasmodium parasites, the causative agents of malaria, have developed elaborate
strategies that they use to survive and thrive within different intracellular environments …

Plasmodium parasites responsible for the disease malaria reside within erythrocytes. Inside
this niche host cell, parasites internalize and digest host hemoglobin to source amino acids …

The completion of the Plasmodium falciparum clone 3D7 genome provides a basis on which
to conduct comparative proteomics studies of this human pathogen. Here, we applied a high …

The completion of the genome sequence for Plasmodium falciparum, the species
responsible for most malaria human deaths, has the potential to reveal hundreds of new …

Development of malaria parasites within vertebrate erythrocytes requires nutrient uptake at
the host cell membrane. The plasmodial surface anion channel (PSAC) mediates this …

The asexual stage of malaria parasites of the genus Plasmodium invade red blood cells of
various species including humans. After parasite invasion, red blood cells progressively …

Falciparum malaria is a complex disease with no simple explanation, affecting organs where
the parasite is rare as well as those organs where it is more common. We continue to argue …

Malaria parasites cause much morbidity and mortality to their human hosts. From our
evolutionary perspective, this is because virulence is positively associated with parasite …

Plasmodium falciparum parasites, the causative agents of malaria, modify their host
erythrocyte to render them permeable to supplementary nutrient uptake from the plasma and …

Plasmodium falciparum‐infected erythrocytes sequester from blood circulation by binding
host endothelium. A large family of variant proteins mediates cytoadherence and their …
