HDP—A Novel Heme Detoxification Protein from the Malaria Parasite

Jani, Dewal, Nagarkatti, Rana, Beatty, Wandy, Angel, Ross, Slebodnick, Carla, Andersen, John, ...

When malaria parasites infect host red blood cells (RBC) and proteolyze hemoglobin, a unique, albeit poorly understood parasite-specific mechanism, detoxifies released heme into hemozoin (Hz). Here,...
