Plasmodium falciparum is a unicellular protozoan parasite responsible for malaria in humans. It achieves infection using protein phosphorylation pathways, or phosphosignaling.

Plasmodium falciparum function in a range of environments from the high extracellular Ca2+ concentrations within blood plasma to the relatively low concentrations found in host cells.

The pathogenicity of Plasmodium falciparum results from its unique ability to adhere to endothelium and uninfected erythrocytes. It is, therefore, important to understand the events leading to flowing ...

Synchronous development of the erythrocytic stages of a human malaria parasite, Plasmodium falciparum, in culture was accomplished by suspending cultured parasites in 5% D-sorbitol and subsequent ...
