A new computational approach redefines the subtelomeric vir superfamily of Plasmodium vivax

16 Jan 2013

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Subtelomeric multigene families of malaria parasites encode virulent determinants. The published genome sequence of Plasmodium vivax revealed the largest subtelomeric multigene family of human malaria parasites, the vir super-family, presently composed of 346 vir genes subdivided into 12 different subfamilies based on sequence homologies detected by BLAST. RESULTS: A novel computational approach was...
