Alkyne modified purines for assessing activation of Plasmodium vivax hypnozoites and growth of pre-erythrocytic and erythrocytic stages in Plasmodium spp.

A. Botnar, G. Lawrence, S. P. Maher…·D. E. Kyle

This study develops alkyne-modified purines as a DNA synthesis marker to distinguish replicating and non-replicating Plasmodium stages, aiding in understanding dormancy mechanisms.
