The cytoadherence ligand Plasmodium falciparum Erythrocyte Membrane Protein 1 (PfEMP1) binds to the P. falciparum Knob-associated Histidine-rich Protein (KAHRP) by electrostatic interactions

Plasmodium falciparum causes the most lethal form of human malaria claiming millions of lives each year world-wide. A distinctive feature of P. falciparum malaria is the adhesion of parasite-infected erythrocytes to the microvascular endothelium of various organs thereby avoiding clearance by the ho...
