Malaria is spread by the transmission of sexual stage parasites, called gametocytes. However, with Plasmodium falciparum, gametocytes can only be detected in peripheral blood when they are mature and
Transcriptional profiling of transgenic P. falciparum asexual blood stage parasites of the transgenic strain 3D7/DDGFP-PfAP2-HC at five time points during intra-erythrocytic parasite development. The
The rate of mRNA decay is an essential element of post-transcriptional regulation in all organisms. Previously, studies in several organisms found that the specific half-life of each mRNA is precisely
Here we have designed a full processing pipeline of P. falciparum RNA that innclues RNA preservation, extraction, cDNA synthesis and amplification, globin depletion and final transcriptome readout. To
