Sub-grouping of Plasmodium falciparum 3D7 var genes based on sequence analysis of coding and non-coding regions
BACKGROUND: The variant surface antigen family Plasmodium falciparum erythrocyte membrane protein-1 (PfEMP1) is an important target for protective immunity and is implicated in the pathology of malaria through its ability to adhere to host endothelial receptors. The sequence diversity and organizati...
