CRISPR/Cas9 Genome Editing Reveals That the Intron Is Not Essential for <italic toggle="yes">var2csa</italic> Gene Activation or Silencing in <italic toggle="yes">Plasmodium falciparum</italic>

ABSTRACT Plasmodium falciparum relies on monoallelic expression of 1 of 60 var virulence genes for antigenic variation and host immune evasion. Each var gene contains a conserved intron which has been implicated in previous studies in both activation and repression of transcription via several epige...
