Epigenetic regulation of Plasmodium falciparum clonally variant gene expression during development in Anopheles gambiae

P. falciparum phenotypic plasticity is linked to the variant expression of clonal multigene families such as the var genes. We have examined changes in transcription and histone modifications that occur during sporogonic development of P. falciparum in the mosquito host. All var genes are silenced o...
