摘要/Abstract

摘要：

恶性疟原虫在人体内编码变异型表面抗原，可能引起其对人体进行免疫逃避。重复散布家族（rif）基因是编码变异型表面抗原的第一大家族，研究rif基因的调控如组蛋白修饰、阻遏元件调节、表达蛋白参与了免疫逃避等，具有很重要的意义。本文对调控rif基因机制的相关的研究进展进行综述，以期探究恶性疟原虫的致病过程。

关键词: 恶性疟原虫, rif基因, 转录调控, 免疫逃避, 转录抑制

Abstract:

Plasmodium falciparum-infected erythrocytes express multiple polymorphic proteins known as variant surface antigens, which are associated with symptomatic and severe malaria. The repetitive interspersed family (rif) gene is one of the largest gene families of the P. falciparum multicopy gene families which potentially encode variant antigens. Studying the regulation of rif genes, such as histone modification, repressor element regulation and the involvement of expressed proteins in immune evasion, is of great significance. Based on the current research, we made a comprehensive summary of the rif gene expression regulation mechanisms to understand the pathogenic mechanism of P. falciparum.

Key words: Plasmodium falciparum, rif gene, Transcription regulation, Immune evasion, Transcription repression
