Sporozoite transcriptome
Jonathan Weitzman ((jonathanweitzman@hotmail.com) | Aug 8, 2001 | 1 min read
The protozoan parasite Plasmodium causes malaria, the most serious parasitic disease in humans. The identification of proteins expressed at the infectious sporozoite stage is important for the selection of potential vaccine candidates. In the August 14 Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, Stefan Kappe and colleagues from the New York University School of Medicine describe attempts to characterize the sporozoite transcriptome (Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 2001, 98:9895-9900).They construct
