    Description: Chromosome 2 of Plasmodium falciparum was sequenced; this sequence contains 947,103 base pairs and encodes 210 predicted genes. In comparison with the Saccharomyces cerevisiae genome, chromosome 2 has a lower gene density, introns are more frequent, and proteins are markedly enriched in nonglobular domains. A family of surface proteins, rifins, that may play a role in antigenic variation was identified. The complete sequencing of chromosome 2 has shown that sequencing of the A+T-rich P. falciparum genome is technically feasible.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Gardner, M J -- Tettelin, H -- Carucci, D J -- Cummings, L M -- Aravind, L -- Koonin, E V -- Shallom, S -- Mason, T -- Yu, K -- Fujii, C -- Pederson, J -- Shen, K -- Jing, J -- Aston, C -- Lai, Z -- Schwartz, D C -- Pertea, M -- Salzberg, S -- Zhou, L -- Sutton, G G -- Clayton, R -- White, O -- Smith, H O -- Fraser, C M -- Adams, M D -- Venter, J C -- Hoffman, S L -- R01 AI40125-01/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1998 Nov 6;282(5391):1126-32.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Institute for Genomic Research, Rockville, MD 20850, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9804551" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Plasmodium berghei and Plasmodium chabaudi are widely used model malaria species. Comparison of their genomes, integrated with proteomic and microarray data, with the genomes of Plasmodium falciparum and Plasmodium yoelii revealed a conserved core of 4500 Plasmodium genes in the central regions of the 14 chromosomes and highlighted genes evolving rapidly because of stage-specific selective pressures. Four strategies for gene expression are apparent during the parasites' life cycle: (i) housekeeping; (ii) host-related; (iii) strategy-specific related to invasion, asexual replication, and sexual development; and (iv) stage-specific. We observed posttranscriptional gene silencing through translational repression of messenger RNA during sexual development, and a 47-base 3' untranslated region motif is implicated in this process.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Hall, Neil -- Karras, Marianna -- Raine, J Dale -- Carlton, Jane M -- Kooij, Taco W A -- Berriman, Matthew -- Florens, Laurence -- Janssen, Christoph S -- Pain, Arnab -- Christophides, Georges K -- James, Keith -- Rutherford, Kim -- Harris, Barbara -- Harris, David -- Churcher, Carol -- Quail, Michael A -- Ormond, Doug -- Doggett, Jon -- Trueman, Holly E -- Mendoza, Jacqui -- Bidwell, Shelby L -- Rajandream, Marie-Adele -- Carucci, Daniel J -- Yates, John R 3rd -- Kafatos, Fotis C -- Janse, Chris J -- Barrell, Bart -- Turner, C Michael R -- Waters, Andrew P -- Sinden, Robert E -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2005 Jan 7;307(5706):82-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Pathogen Sequencing Unit, Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute, Genome Campus, Hinxton, Cambridge CB10 1SA, UK. nhall@tigr.org〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15637271" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The completion of the genome sequence for Plasmodium falciparum, the species responsible for most malaria human deaths, has the potential to reveal hundreds of new drug targets and proteins involved in pathogenesis. However, only approximately 35% of the genes code for proteins with an identifiable function. The absence of routine genetic tools for studying Plasmodium parasites suggests that this number is unlikely to change quickly if conventional serial methods are used to characterize encoded proteins. Here, we use a high-density oligonucleotide array to generate expression profiles of human and mosquito stages of the malaria parasite's life cycle. Genes with highly correlated levels and temporal patterns of expression were often involved in similar functions or cellular processes.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Le Roch, Karine G -- Zhou, Yingyao -- Blair, Peter L -- Grainger, Muni -- Moch, J Kathleen -- Haynes, J David -- De La Vega, Patricia -- Holder, Anthony A -- Batalov, Serge -- Carucci, Daniel J -- Winzeler, Elizabeth A -- MC_U117532067/Medical Research Council/United Kingdom -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2003 Sep 12;301(5639):1503-8.
