Erythrocyte binding ligands in malaria parasites: intracellular trafficking and parasite virulence

Acta Tropica
Richard L Culleton, Osamu Kaneko

Abstract

The intracellular trafficking of an Erythrocyte Binding Like (EBL) ligand has recently been shown to dramatically affect the multiplication rate and virulence of the rodent malaria parasite Plasmodium yoelii yoelii. In this review, we describe the current understanding of the role of EBL and other erythrocyte binding ligands in erythrocyte invasion, and discuss the mechanisms by which they may control multiplication rates and virulence in malaria parasites.
