Dynamic Chromatin Structure and Epigenetics Control the Fate of Malaria Parasites

Thomas Hollin et al.

Summary: The human malaria parasite, Plasmodium falciparum, has developed complex molecular mechanisms to ensure survival, spread, and transmission to its next host. Evidence suggests that the parasite has complex and complementary layers of regulatory mechanisms controlling gene expression, including epigenetics, transcription factors, and nuclear architecture, to control gene regulation and life cycle progression.

An integrated platform for genome engineering and gene expression perturbation in Plasmodium falciparum

Armiyaw S. Nasamu et al.

Summary: This study discusses the establishment of robust genome engineering methods in the malarial parasite Plasmodium falciparum, highlighting the difficulties associated with high AT content DNA constructs and proposing a solution through a novel DNA assembly framework. By leveraging the improved reliability of manipulating AT-rich regions in linear plasmids, the authors have created a molecular toolkit that facilitates deeper interrogation of parasite genes and genetic outcomes.
