Evidence of functional divergence in MSP7 paralogous proteins : a molecular-evolutionary and phylogenetic analysis
Background: The merozoite surface protein 7 (MSP7) is a Plasmodium protein which is involved in parasite invasion; the gene encoding it belongs to a multigene family. It has been proposed that MSP7 paralogues seem to be functionally redundant; however, recent experiments have suggested that they cou...
