<em>Plasmodium falciparum</em> heterochromatin protein 1 marks genomic loci linked to phenotypic variation of exported virulence factors (Publications)
Epigenetic processes are the main conductors of phenotypic variation in eukaryotes. The malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum employs antigenic variation of the major surface antigen PfEMP1, encoded by
