Abstract excerpt
SURFINs protein family expressed on surface of both infected red blood cell and merozoite surface making them as interesting vaccine candidate for erythrocytic stage of malaria infection. In this study, we analyze genetic variation of Pfsurf4.1 gene, copy number variation, and frequency of SURFIN4.1 variants of P. falciparum in clinical isolates. In addition, secondary structure prediction and immunoinformatic...
