Difference from wild-type
RMgm-4481
Parasites lacking PbmaLS_05 showed a decreased ability to infect RBC (and immature reticulocytes), resulting in reduced peripheral parasite loads. Reduced mortality due to experimental cerebral malaria (ECM). None of the mice infected with mutant sporozoites developed ECM; in contrast, mice infected with WT sporozoites, displayed signs of ECM between day 7 and 9 p.i. Mice die from high parasitemia and anemia.
