Revisiting the Plasmodium falciparum RIFIN family: from comparative genomics to 3D-model prediction
BACKGROUND: Subtelomeric RIFIN genes constitute the most abundant multigene family in Plasmodium falciparum. RIFIN products are targets for the human immune response and contribute to the antigenic variability of the parasite. They are transmembrane proteins grouped into two sub-families (RIF_A and...
