P. falciparum pro-histoaspartic protease (proHAP) protein peptides bind specifically to erythrocytes and inhibit the invasion process in vitro
{{output}}
Plasmodium falciparum histoaspartic protease (HAP) is an active enzyme involved in haemoglobin degradation. HAP is expressed as an inactive 51-kDa zymogen and is cleaved into an active 37-kDa enzyme. It has been proposed that this kind of protease might be imp... ...
