Patterns of gene recombination shape vargene repertoires in Plasmodium falciparum:comparisons of geographically diverse isolates (2007)

Kraemer, Susan M, Kyes, Sue A, Aggarwal, Gautam, Springer, Amy L, Nelson, Siri O, Christodoulou, Zoe, ...

Abstract Background Var genes encode a family of virulence factors known as PfEMP1 ( Plasmodium falciparum erythrocyte membrane protein 1) which are responsible for both antigenic variation and...

The crystal structure of superoxide dismutase from Plasmodium falciparum (2006)

Boucher, Ian W, Brzozowski, Andrzej M, Brannigan, James A, Schnick, Claudia, Smith, Derek J, Kyes, Sue A, ...

Abstract Background Superoxide dismutases (SODs) are important enzymes in defence against oxidative stress. In Plasmodium falciparum , they may be expected to have special significance since part of...

Rifins: A second family of clonally variant proteins expressed on the surface of red cells infected with Plasmodium falciparum

Kyes, Sue A., Rowe, J. Alexandra, Kriek, Neline, Newbold, Chris I.

Many pathogens evade the host immune response or adapt to their environment by expressing surface proteins that undergo rapid switching. In the case of Plasmodium falciparum, products of a multigene...

Variable var transition rates underlie antigenic variation in malaria

Horrocks, Paul, Pinches, Robert, Christodoulou, Zóe, Kyes, Sue A., Newbold, Chris I.

Plasmodium falciparum erythrocyte membrane protein 1 (PfEMP1) is expressed on the surface of infected erythrocytes where it plays a central role in both infected erythrocytes cytoadhesion and immune...
