Hierarchical transcriptional control regulates Plasmodium falciparum sexual differentiation

Hierarchical transcriptional control regulates Plasmodium falciparum sexual differentiation

Abstract Background Malaria pathogenesis relies on sexual gametocyte forms of the malaria parasite to be transmitted between the infected human and the mosquito host but the molecular mechanisms controlling gametocytogenesis remains poorly understood. Here we provide a high-resolution transcriptome...
