Abstract excerpt
A malarial protein, Plasmodium falciparum erythrocyte membrane protein 3 (PfEMP3), has been recently characterized as a high-molecular-mass component (approx. 315 kDa) localized to the erythrocyte membrane of knob-bearing (K+), cytoadherent (C+) mature stages of P. falciparum-parasitized erythrocytes (PE) [Pasloske et al., Mol. Biochem. Parasitol. 59 (1993) 59-72]. Knobless (K-), non-cytoadherent (C-) parasites...
