Polymorphism in merozoite surface protein-7E of Plasmodium vivax in Thailand: Natural selection related to protein secondary structure.

PloS one - 1 Jan 2018

Abstract excerpt

Merozoite surface protein 7 (MSP-7) is a multigene family expressed during malaria blood-stage infection. MSP-7 forms complex with MSP-1 prior to merozoite egress from erythrocytes, and could affect merozoite invasion of erythrocytes. To characterize sequence variation in the orthologue in P. vivax (PvMSP-7), a gene member encoding PvMSP-7E was analyzed among 92 Thai isolates collected from 3 major endemic areas...
