Exported Proteins Required for Virulence and Rigidity of Plasmodium falciparum-Infected Human Erythrocytes

A major part of virulence for Plasmodium falciparum malaria infection, the most lethal parasitic disease of humans, results from increased rigidity and adhesiveness of infected host red cells. These changes are caused by parasite proteins exported to the erythrocyte using novel trafficking machinery...
