The role of the reticulocyte-binding-like protein homologues of Plasmodium in erythrocyte sensing and invasion by Gunalan, Karthigayan, Gao, Xiaohong, Yap, Sally Shu Lin, Huang, Ximei, Preiser, Peter Rainer

“…Two parasite protein families termed reticulocyte-binding-like protein homologues (RBL) and the erythrocyte-binding-like (EBL) protein family are conserved in all Plasmodium species and have been shown to play an important role in host cell recognition and invasion. Over the last few years significant new insights have been gained in understanding the function of the RBL family and this review attempts to provide an update with a specific focus on the role of RBL in signal transduction pathways during invasion.…”
