Novel inhibitors of <em>Plasmodium falciparum</em> dihydroorotate dehydrogenase with anti-malarial activity in the mouse model (Publications)
Plasmodium falciparum, the causative agent of the most deadly form of human malaria, is unable to salvage pyrimidines and must rely on de novo biosynthesis for survival. Dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH)

elements from distant genes in antibody transcripts. Independent of the preexposure of donors to malaria parasites, non-VDJ inserts were detected in 80% of individuals at frequencies of 1 in 10(4) to 10(5)
Molecular epidemiology and genetic diversity of disappearing <em>Plasmodium vivax</em> in southern Thailand (Publications)
The evolution of genetic diversity and population structure of Plasmodium vivax as malaria elimination approaches remains unclear. This study analyzed the genetic variation and molecular epidemiology of

In the murine malaria model induced by Plasmodium berghei, we studied the immunogenicity of the repeat region of the circumsporozoite (CS) protein, which is the main target of the antibody response in

Characterization of the small exported <em>Plasmodium falciparum</em> membrane protein SEMP1 (Publications)
Survival and virulence of the human malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum during the blood stage of infection critically depend on extensive host cell refurbishments mediated through export of numerous
