Substitution of Pro165 in Transmembrane 4 of PfCRT Abolishes Lysosome Acidification Function in Stably Transfected HEK-293F Cells

Fadi Baakdah & Elias Georges · Microbiology Research Journal International · 2021

The Plasmodium falciparum chloroquine resistance transporter (PfCRT) is localised on the parasite digestive vacuole, an organelle that maintains an acidic lumen. Here we demonstrated the isolation of HEK-293F cells stably expressing wild type 3D7 and mutant Pfcrt alleles. Immuno-...

Molecular Determinants of Artemisinin Resistance in k13 Gene of Plasmodium falciparum

Zaw Lin & Myo Thura Zaw · Microbiology Research Journal International · 2015

Artemisinin-based combination therapy (ACT) is the first-line therapy in most malaria endemic countries. An impressive 47% reduction in the global mortality rate between 2000 and 2013 has been achieved by ACT and artemisinin (ART) monotherapy. However, artemisinin resistance (AR)...

Mathematical Model of Malaria for Co-infection of Plasmodium vivax and Plasmodium falciparum in India

Buddhadeo Mahato, Bimal Kumar Mishra, Anurag Jayswal & Binay Kumar Mishra · Microbiology Research Journal International · 2014

Malaria is caused by the protozoan parasites of genus Plasmodium. Plasmodium falciparum is the most common cause of malaria in Africa and South-East Asia. In India, Plasmodium vivax has been the primary pathogen responsible for malaria, even though Plasmodium falciparum cases are...
