Dynamic activation and repression of the plasmodium falciparum rif gene family and their relation to chromatin modification.
The regulation of variant gene expression in Plasmodium falciparum is still only partially understood. Regulation of var genes, the most studied gene family involved in antigenic variation, is orchestrated by a dynamic pattern of inherited chromatin states. Although recent evidence pointed to epigen...
