Plasmodium falciparum rhoptry proteins play diverse roles in the asexual erythrocytic life cycle, including in erythrocyte invasion, protein export and nutrient import

2018-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Plasmodium falciparum invades, replicates within and egresses from red blood cells. This asexual red blood cell stage is crucial for the propagation of the parasite and also accounts for all clinical manifestations of the disease. There is currently no effective vaccine available, and drug resistance is increasingly being seen across all classes of antimalarials. As a member of the Apicomplexa phylum, Plasmodium p...
