35465336 \"Parasites that carry a deletion of MaCFET (Pfmacfet¯), developed normally as asexual stages, indicating that its function is not essential for the asexual proliferation of the parasite in vitro. Furthermore, Pfmacfet¯ male and female gametocytes developed normally and underwent activation to form microgametes and macrogametes. However, by utilizing genetic crosses, we demonstrate that Pfmacfet¯ parasites suffer a complete female-specific defect in successful fertilization. Therefore, PfMaCFET is a critical female-contributed factor for parasite transmission to the mosquito.\" |
