Abstract

Plasmodium falciparum is responsible for causing cerebral malaria in humans. IMP1 is an immunogenic protein, present in the parasite, which has been shown to induce an immune response against apicomplexan parasites in a species-specific manner. Here, we report the complete NMR assignments of PfIMP1.

Keywords: Antigenic protein; IMP1; NMR; Plasmodium falciparum.
