For malaria parasites balancing sexual commitment, the frequency with which asexual bloodstream forms differentiate into non-replicative male and female gametocytes is critical because asexual replication is required to maintain a persistent infection of the human host while the non-replicative gametocytes are essential for infection of the mosquito vector and transmission. Here we describe recent advances in understanding of the regulatory mechanisms controlling this key developmental decision. These include new insights into the mechanistic roles of the transcriptional master switch AP2-G and the epigenetic modulator GDV1, as well as the identification of defined metabolic signals that modulate their activity. Many of these metabolites are linked to parasite phospholipid biogenesis and we propose a model linking this pathway to the epigenetic regulation underlying sexual commitment in P. falciparum. Factors promoting (orange) and suppressing (blue) the frequency of sexual commitment rate in Plasmodium falciparum.
