CRISPR Interference of a Clonally Variant GC-Rich Noncoding RNA Family Leads to General Repression of <italic toggle="yes">var</italic> Genes in <named-content content-type="genus-species">Plasmodium falciparum</named-content>

ABSTRACT The human malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum uses mutually exclusive expression of the PfEMP1-encoding var gene family to evade the host immune system. Despite progress in the molecular understanding of the default silencing mechanism, the activation mechanism of the uniquely expressed...
