Generation of a genetically double-attenuated Plasmodium berghei parasite that fully arrests growth during late liver stage development.
Malaria caused by Plasmodium parasites remains a large health burden. One approach to combat this disease involves vaccinating individuals with whole sporozoites that have been genetically modified to arrest their development at a specific stage in the liver by targeted gene deletion, resulting in a...
