We assessed CD98 expression during and after malaria in plasmablasts (CD27+CD38+), transitional/naive IgD+ B cells, and IgD- B cell subsets (atypical [CD27-CD21-], memory [CD27+CD21+] and activated memory [CD27+CD21-]) (Supplementary Fig. 20B, C). This evidence concerns the gene SLC3A2 and malaria.
