The role of the reticulocyte-binding-like protein homologues of Plasmodium in erythrocyte sensing and invasion
Malaria remains a serious public health problem with significant morbidity and mortality accounting for nearly 20% of all childhood deaths in Africa. The cyclical invasion, cytoadherence and destruction of the host's erythrocyte by the parasite are responsible for the observed disease pathology...
