The Sequencing of the Genome of Plasmodiumfalciparum Promises to Revolutionize the Way In Which Malaria Research Will Becarried Out. Beyond Simple Gene Discovery, the Genome Sequence Will Facilitatethe Comprehensive Determination of the Parasite’S Gene Expression During Itsdevelopmental Phases, Pathology, and In Response to Environmental Variables,Such As Drug Treatment and Host Genetic Background. This Article Reviews Thecurrent Status of the P. Falciparum Genome Sequencing Project and the Uniqueinsights It Has Generated. We Also Summarize the Application of Bioinformaticsand Analytical Tools That Have Been Developed For Functional Genomics. the Aim of These Activities Is the Rational,Information-Based Identification of New Therapeutic Strategies and Targets,Based on a Thorough Insight into the Biology of Plasmodium Spp. Plasmodiumfalciparum Malaria Is One of the Most Lethal Infectious Diseasesafflicting Humanity. During Development Within the Erythrocyte, P. Falciparum Induces Significantmodifications to the Structure and Function of the Human Erythrocyte Membrane.This Study Focused on the Identification of New Protein-Protein Interactionsbetween Host and Parasite. the Intraerythrocytic Development of Plasmodium Falciparum, the Mostvirulent Human Malaria Parasite Involves Asexual and Gametocyte Stages. Therehas Been a Significant Increase In Disparate Datasets Derived from Genomic Andpost-Genomic Analysis of the Parasite That Necessitates Delivery of Integratedanalysis from ...
