A family of chimeric erythrocyte binding proteins of malaria parasites
3 Feb 1998
Abstract excerpt
Proteins sequestered within organelles of the apical complex of malaria merozoites are involved in erythrocyte invasion, but few of these proteins and their interaction with the host erythrocyte have been characterized. In this report we describe MAEBL, a family of erythrocyte binding proteins identified in the rodent malaria parasites Plasmodium yoelii yoelii and Plasmodium berghei. MAEBL has a chimeric...
