The Plasmodium falciparum Rh5 invasion protein complex reveals an excess of rare variant mutations
<strong>Background</strong> The invasion of the red blood cells by Plasmodium falciparum merozoites involves the interplay of several proteins that are also targets for vaccine development. The proteins PfRh5-PfRipr-PfCyRPA-Pfp113 assemble into a complex at the apical end of the merozoit...
