Population genetic structure and natural selection of Plasmodium falciparum apical membrane antigen-1 in Myanmar isolates
Abstract Background Plasmodium falciparum apical membrane antigen-1 (PfAMA-1) is one of leading blood stage malaria vaccine candidates. However, genetic variation and antigenic diversity identified in global PfAMA-1 are major hurdles in the development of an effective vaccine based on this antigen....
