Cloning, Overexpression, Purification and Immunolocal-ization of PFD0975w from the Malaria Parasite Plasmodium falciparum
Authors: Arnish Chakraborty, S. N. Balaji, Amogh A. Sahasrabuddhe and Vishal TrivediMalaria is a parasitic disease, widespread along the tropical regions of the world. The disease has killed 4, 38,000 individuals in the year 2015 (WHO). The malaria parasite, Plasmodium falciparum, has evolved resistance to front-line antimalarials over the decade, necessitating the identification of new drug targets. Protein kinases are excellent drug targets since they participate in critical cell-signaling cascades. We Read More
