Abstract
Monitoring whole-genome translation and mRNA ribosome occupancy in vivo using ribosome profiling has proven to be a powerful tool for discovery of gene expression regulation, mechanisms of translation, and new open reading frames, in a wide range of different cell types in different organisms. Here we describe its application to the malaria parasite, Plasmodium falciparum. We present methods for intact polysome purification from parasite cultures, polysome digestion, monosome purification, ribosome footprint nucleic acid extraction, and Illumina library preparation.
