Gene disruption confirms a critical role for the cysteine protease falcipain-2 in hemoglobin hydrolysis by Plasmodium falciparum

Erythrocytic malaria parasites degrade hemoglobin in an acidic food vacuole to acquire free amino acids and maintain parasite homeostasis. Hemoglobin hydrolysis appears to be a cooperative process requiring cysteine proteases (falcipains) and aspartic proteases (plasmepsins), but the specific roles...
