TRAP is necessary for gliding motility and infectivity of plasmodium sporozoites.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that by gene targeting in a rodent Plasmodium, TRAP is critical for sporozoite infection of the mosquito salivary glands and the rat liver, and is essential for sporzoite gliding motility in vitro, suggesting that in PlasModium sporozoites, and likely in other Apicomplexa, gliding locomotion and cell invasion have a common molecular basis.
Journal ArticleDOI

A highly conserved amino-acid sequence in thrombospondin, properdin and in proteins from sporozoites and blood stages of a human malaria parasite

TL;DR: The cloning and sequencing of a gene from Plasmodium falciparum is reported, coding for a protein called thrombospondin related anonymous protein (TRAP), which shares certain sequence motifs common to other well-characterized proteins.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: It is found that jointly calling variants across samples, filtering against both local and external databases, deploying multiple annotation tools and using familial transmission above biological plausibility contributed to accuracy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Geography of HFE C282Y and H63D mutations.

TL;DR: The scarcity of the C282Y mutation in other populations accounts for the lack of HH in non-Europeans.
