The transmission of the malaria parasite between mosquitoes and mammals requires translational repression to ensure that only the proper proteins are expressed at the right time, while still allowing the parasite to prepare the mRNAs it will need for the next developmental stage. With relatively few...
MalariaM-bM-^@M-^Ys cycle of infection requires parasite transmission between a mosquito vector and a vertebrate host. Plasmodium regulates transmission by translationally repressing specific mRNAs until their products are needed. We demonstrate that the Plasmodium yoelii Pumilio-FBF family member P...
