About
Dr. Krithika Rajaram is an Assistant Professor at The Ohio State University, USA. Her research focuses on mitochondrial metabolism and apicoplast functions in the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum, exploring topics such as carboxylic acid transporters, sulfur assembly for iron-sulfur clusters, and metabolic adaptations to drug exposure. She has published several articles that underscore the critical roles of isoprenoids and ferredoxin-dependent proteins in parasite biogenesis and metabolic survival pathways.

Ferredoxin (Fd) and ferredoxin-NADP+ reductase (FNR) form one of the few known redox systems in the apicoplast of malaria parasites and provide reducing power to iron-sulfur (FeS) cluster proteins within the organelle. While the Fd/FNR system has been explored as a drug target, the essentiality and roles of this system and the identity of its downstream FeS proteins have not been determined.
