General information on Plasmodium falciparum PF10Nter Recombinant Protein
Tryptophan-rich protein expressed in the late stage schizonts and merozoite stages and because of its association with the surface of merozoites. The protein is localized on the surface of merozoites. The characteristic of the protein is similar to a P. yoelii antigen, pypAg-3, which have been successfully used in vaccination studies in mice. The conservation and uniqueness of the tryptophan-rich domains in plasmodial species, is anindication that it may be an important and essential feature of parasite function.
