Malaria Genetics and Genomics

Data and information relevant to Plasmodium falciparum, the apicomplexan parasite responsible for the most serious form of human malaria. These resources include P. falciparum sequence databases, genome maps, linkage markers, and information about genetic studies, plus links to other malaria web sites and genetic data on related apicomplexan parasites, including Toxoplasma gondii.

Malaria Parasite Metabolic Pathways

Collection of metabolic pathways relating to the biochemistry of the malaria parasite. Individual maps include details of cell-cell interactions (cytoadherence and rosetting), invasion of the erythrocyte by the parasite and transport functions. Content can be browsed or searched by enzyme, compound or protein name, or by enzyme EC number.

Malaria Prevention and Control

Information about malaria trends, epidemiological data, geographical distribution and disease control activity. In 1997, malaria risk of varying degrees existed in 100 countries and territories and over 40% of the world population lived in areas with malaria risk.
