Natural selection on apical membrane antigen-1 of Plasmodium falciparum.

Parassitologia - 1 Sept 1999

Verra F, Hughes A L

Abstract excerpt

The Apical Membrane Antigen-1 (AMA-1) is a protein localized in the apical organelles of the merozoite, one of the stages in the life cycle of malaria parasites (Plasmodium spp.) that infects the vertebrate host. This antigen, which is encoded by a single polymorphic locus, plays a role in evadin...
