In this new study, published in PLOS Biology, scientists have uncovered the crucial roles of a group of motor proteins named kinesins during the parasite life cycle. The research, led by Rita Tewari, ...
The mosquito-borne infectious disease malaria resulted in about 241 million clinical episodes and 627,000 deaths in 2020. In young children and pregnant women living in areas where the disease is ...
Please provide your email address to receive an email when new articles are posted on . Researchers said they have identified a new “hidden” life cycle of malaria parasites in the human spleen — a ...
Scientists have discovered a new target in their fight against the devastating global disease 'malaria' thanks to the discovery of a new protein involved in the parasite's life cycle. The research has ...
In a finding that could significantly enhance scientists’ ability to develop and test drugs and vaccines to treat the most common and lethal form of malaria, a UCSF team has identified the full ...
Researchers have mapped in fine detail the genetic changes malaria parasites go through as they prepare to infect people. The atlas maps the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum in unprecedented ...
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), in 2019, there were approximately 229 million cases of malaria around the world, of which 409,000 were fatal. Now, researchers at the Francis Crick ...
Malaria is caused by a eukaryotic microbe of the Plasmodium genus, and is responsible for more deaths than all other parasitic diseases combined. In order to transmit from the human host to the ...
23 February 2014 — Two teams have independently discovered that a single regulatory protein acts as the master genetic switch that triggers the development of male and female sexual forms (termed ...
For the first time the developmental stages of the deadliest human malaria parasite, Plasmodium falciparum, have been mapped in high resolution, allowing scientists to better understand this ...
New insight on the molecular mechanisms that allow malaria parasites to move and spread disease within their hosts has just been published. The first X-ray structures of the molecular complex that ...
