SURFIN is a polymorphic antigen expressed on Plasmodium falciparum merozoites and infected erythrocytes

The surfaces of the infected erythrocyte (IE) and the merozoite, two developmental stages of malaria parasites, expose antigenic determinants to the host immune system. We report on surface-associated interspersed genes (surf genes), which encode a novel polymorphic protein family, SURFINs, present...
