Sequence variation in Plasmodium falciparum Histidine Rich Proteins 2 and 3 in Indian isolates: Implications for Malaria Rapid Diagnostic Test Performance

Commercial malaria rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs) detect P. falciparum histidine rich protein 2 (PfHRP2) and cross react with PfHRP3, a structural homologue. Here, we analysed natural variations in PfHRP2 and PfHRP3 sequences from Indian isolates and correlated these variations with RDT reactivity. A...
