Immunogenicity and protectivity of Plasmodium falciparum EBA-175 peptide and its analog is associated with alpha-helical region shortening and displacement
EBA-175 protein is used as a ligand in the binding of P. falciparum to red blood cells (RBCs). Evidence shows that the conserved peptide 1779 from this protein (with high red blood cell binding ability and known critical erythrocyte binding residues) plays an important role in the invasion process....
