Optical tweezers reveal that PfEBA and PfRH ligands, not PfMSP1, play a central role in <i>Plasmodium-falciparum</i> merozoite-erythrocyte attachment

2024-02-13

Abstract excerpt

Malaria pathogenesis and parasite multiplication both depend on the ability of Plasmodium falciparum merozoites to invade human erythrocytes. Invasion is a complex multi-step process that is known to involve multiple P. falciparum proteins but dissecting the precise role of individual proteins has to date been limited by the availability of quantifiable phenotypic assays. In this study, we apply a new approach t...
