New insights for native production of MSP1(19), the disulfide-rich C-terminal fragment from Plasmodium falciparum merozoite surface protein 1.
Malaria represents a major public health problem and an important cause of mortality and morbidity. The malaria parasites are becoming resistant to drugs used to treat the disease and still no efficient vaccine has been developed. One promising vaccine candidate is the merozoite surface protein 1 (M...
