Identification and analysis of a novel scavenger receptor-like protein conserved in Plasmodium species

2004-01-01

Abstract excerpt

In October 2002, the complete sequence of the genome of the human malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum was published. The data showed that as many as 60% of all identified open reading frames were unique to the parasite, with no known homologues in other species. Identification and characterization of novel molecules that may provide targets for drug and vaccine design is crucial to fight malaria. The aim of thi...
