Successful Profiling of Plasmodium falciparum var Gene Expression in Clinical Samples via a Custom Capture Array
var genes encode Plasmodium falciparum erythrocyte membrane protein-1 (PfEMP1) antigens. These highly diverse antigens are displayed on the surface of infected erythrocytes and play a critical role in immune evasion and sequestration of infected erythrocytes. Studies of var expression using non-leuk...
