P. berghei ANKA Gametocyte
Difference from wild-type
RMgm-4686
Normal number of gametocytes and gametes were formed. The pb115 parasites showed significant defects in the interactions between the male and female gametes, and as a result, very few zygotes were formed in ookinete cultures.

P. berghei ANKA Ookinete
Difference from wild-type
RMgm-4686
During our in vitro culture of ookinetes, the zygote numbers formed at 2 h and ookinete numbers at 24 h in the two pb115 clones suffered similar levels of reduction (95%) compared to the WT parasites. The pb115 parasites showed significant defects in the interactions between the male and female gametes, and as a result, very few zygotes were formed in ookinete cultures.

P. berghei ANKA Oocyst
Difference from wild-type
RMgm-4686
Mosquitoes fed on pb115-infected mice showed 74% reduction in the prevalence of infection and 96.5% reduction in oocyst density compared to those fed on wild-type P. berghei-infected mice
