Animation of the intraerythrocytic development cycle based on change of expression rates of the P. falciparum genome
Description: This animation of the intraerythrocytic development cycle is
based on change of expression rates of genes on the 14 nuclear chromosomes
of P. falciparum HB3 (see also figure 4). The upper left corner displays
an `infection timer' which indicates up- (red) and down regulation (blue)
of all genes during a certain time point. The genes with strong up (red
dots) or down-regulation (blue dots) are indicated. The diameter of the
dot indicates the degree of regulation (e.g., large red dot means strong
up-regulation). |
