P25 and P28 proteins of the malaria ookinete surface have multiple and partially redundant functions.

P25 and P28 proteins of the malaria ookinete surface have multiple and partially redundant functions.

The ookinete surface proteins (P25 and P28) are proven antimalarial transmission-blocking vaccine targets, yet their biological functions are unknown. By using single (Sko) and double gene knock-out (Dko) Plasmodium berghei parasites, we show that P25 and P28 share multiple functions during ookinete...
