Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Malaria is caused by Plasmodium spp. and is a prevalent parasitic disease worldwide. To evade detection by the immune system, by switching variant gene expression, the malaria parasite continually establishes new patterns displaying a single variant erythrocyte surface antigen. The distinct surface molecules encoded by clonally variant gene families include var, rif, stevor, Pfmc-2tm, and surfins....
