De novo assembly of plasmodium interspersed repeat (pir) genes from Plasmodium vivax RNAseq data suggests geographic conservation of sub-family transcription
Abstract Background The plasmodium interspersed repeats (pir) multigene family is found across malaria parasite genomes, first discovered in the human-infecting species Plasmodium vivax, where they were initially named the virs. Their function remains unknown, although studies have suggested a role...
