Positive Diversifying Selection on the Plasmodium falciparum surf4.1 Gene in Thailand
Plasmodium falciparum SURFIN4.1 is a type I transmembrane protein thought to locate on the merozoite surface and to be responsible for a reversible adherence to the erythrocyte before invasion. In this study, we evaluated surf4.1 gene segment encoding extracellular region for polymorphism, the signa...
