The mouse Char10 locus regulates severity of pyruvate kinase deficiency and susceptibility to malaria

Pyruvate kinase (PKLR) deficiency protects mice and humans against blood-stage malaria. Although mouse strain AcB62 carries a malaria-protective Pklr(I90N) genetic mutation, it is phenotypically susceptible to blood stage malaria induced by infection with Plasmodium chabaudi AS, suggesting a genetic...
