Adaptation of Plasmodium falciparum to humans involved the loss of an ape-specific erythrocyte invasion ligand

Here, Proto et al. show that human infective Plasmodium falciparum isolates contain an inactivating mutation in the erythrocyte invasion associated gene PfEBA165, while homologues of ape-infective Laverania species are intact, and that expression of intact PfEBA165 is incompatible with parasite grow...
