A genetic screen for attenuated growth identifies genes crucial for intraerythrocytic development of Plasmodium falciparum.
A majority of the Plasmodium falciparum genome codes for genes with unknown functions, which presents a major challenge to understanding the parasite's biology. Large-scale functional analysis of the parasite genome is essential to pave the way for novel therapeutic intervention strategies agai...
