Meiosis is a conserved yet evolutionarily varied process that underpins sexual reproduction in eukaryotes. In the malaria parasite Plasmodium, meiosis occurs within the mosquito midgut immediately after fertilisation, as the diploid zygote differentiates into a motile ookinete. Here, we identify the...
Through integrative analyses of GWAS summary statistics, population genetic data and expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) annotations, we found that elevated NEK4 expression in hippocampus was causatively linked to the risk of BD. To examine the biological impact of this gene, we generated NEK4...
