A complex equation - adding to Plasmodium falciparum invasion
Research output: Contribution to journal › Journal article › Research › peer-review
The Plasmodium falciparum invasion complex - consisting of the prime blood-stage vaccine candidates PfRH5, PfCyRPA and PfRipr - is essential and conserved. New data from Scally et al. reveal that the complex consists of two additional proteins, adding important knowledge to the current understanding of the biology behind the invasion process.
