Genetic polymorphism and natural selection in the C-terminal 42 kDa region of merozoite surface protein-1 among Plasmodium vivax Korean isolates

BACKGROUND: The carboxy-terminal 42 kDa region of Plasmodium vivax merozoite surface protein-1 (PvMSP-1(42)) is a leading candidate antigen for blood stage vaccine development. However, this region has been observed to be highly polymorphic among filed isolates of P. vivax. Therefore it is important...
