PEST sequences in the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum: a genomic study

BACKGROUND: Inhibitors of the protease calpain are known to have selectively toxic effects on Plasmodium falciparum. The enzyme has a natural inhibitor calpastatin and in eukaryotes is responsible for turnover of proteins containing short sequences enriched in certain amino acids (PEST sequences). T...
