Protein and nucleic acid synthesis during synchronized growth of Plasmodium falciparum.

AUTOR(ES)
RESUMO

Plasmodium falciparum, the human malarial parasite, was synchronized for asexual growth and pulse labeled to determine when RNA, protein, and DNA synthesis occurred. RNA was synthesized during two periods in the 48-h developmental cycle, protein synthesis occurred throughout the cycle, and most DNA was synthesized just before nuclear division (schizogony).
