Recombinant Plasmodium falciparum Protein Summary

• Description: Recombinant Plasmodium falciparum histidine rich protein-2 (HRP2), expressed in E. coli.
  
  

  Source: E. coli
  Histidine rich protein-2 is secreted by Plasmodium falciparum into the host erythrocyte cytosol and is expressed on the cell membrane or associated with the cytoskeleton of infected erythrocytes. Histidine rich protein-2 is thought to polymerise free haem to form haemozoin. It is also thought to play a role in the polymerisation of ferriprotoporphyrin IX, a by-product of haemoglobin degradation.
