Figure 6From: In silico discovery of transcription regulatory elements in Plasmodium falciparumResults of transient transfection using 1527 base pair promoter region of rap3 cloned upstream luciferase reporter as monitored by qRT-PCR. The native promoter (black) results in a life cycle stage-specific expression pattern while specific deletion from the construct of the two copies of PfM18.1 and interspersed sequence at -588 base pairs (white) eliminates this effect.Back to article page
