Malaria is still one of the world's major infectious diseases. It presently affects 500 million people, and causes the death of 1.5-2.5 million people annually. The emergence of drug resistance in the parasite calls for the development of new drugs, and knowledge of specific biochemical processes in the malaria-infected erythrocyte could provide a basis for this development.

Malaria is still one of the world's major infectious diseases. It presently affects 500 million people, and causes the death of 1.5-2.5 million people annually. The emergence of drug resistance in the parasite calls for the development of new drugs, and knowledge of specific biochemical processes in the malaria-infected erythrocyte could provide a basis for this development. This book discusses the transport of solutes into and out of the infected cell, the use of specific transport modalities for the specific targeting of drugs, and the traffic of proteins produced by the parasite in the infected cells, as an essential process for the biogenesis of transport systems.
