Characterization of heat shock protein 70-z (PfHsp70-z) from plasmodium falciparium

Zininga, Tawanda (2015)

Malaria is a parasitic disease that accounts for more than 660 thousand deaths annually, mainly in children. Malaria is caused by five Plasmodium species P. ovale, P. vivax, P. malariae, P. falciparum and P. knowlesi. ...
Comparative analysis of a chimeric Hsp70 of E. coli and Plasmodium falciparum origin relative to its wild type forms

Lebepe, Charity Mekgwa (2019-05-18)

Sustaining proteostasis is essential for the survival of the cell and altered protein regulation leads to many cellular pathologies. Heat shock proteins (Hsps) are involved in the regulation of the protein quality control. ...
Establishment of interaction partners of Plasmodium falciparum heat shock protein 70-x(PfHsp 70-x)

Monyai, Florina Semakaleng (2018-05-18)

Plasmodium falciparum is a unicellular protozoan parasite that causes malaria in humans. The parasite is passed to humans through mosquito bites and migrates to the liver before it infects host erythrocytes. It is at the ...
Exploration of interaction between Plasmodium falciparum Hsp70-x (PfHsp70-x) and human Hsp70-Hsp90 organizing protein (human Hop)

Mabate, Blessing (2017-09)

Malaria is a disease that claims about half a million lives annually, mainly children. There are 5 Plasmodium species that cause malaria; namely, P. falciparum, P. ovale, P. malariae, P. knowlesi and P. vivax. P. falciparum ...
Investigation of the role of HSP70 in the uptake of Granzyme B by Malaria parasite-infected erythrocytes

Ramatsui, Lebogang (2019-09-20)

In 2017 malaria cases were estimated at 219 million and of these 435 000 resulted in death. Malaria is transmitted by female Anopheles mosquitoes which thrive in tropical and sub-tropical areas. Malaria is caused by five ...
Investigation of the role of the GGMP motif of Plasmodium falciparum Hsp70-1 on the chaperone function of the protein and its interaction with a co-chaperone, PfHop

Makumire, Stanley (2019-09-20)

The main malaria agent, Plasmodium falciparum expresses an Hsp70 (PfHsp70-1) which plays a significant role in parasite survival. PfHsp70-1 is distinct in that it possesses glycine-glycine-methionine-proline (GGMP) ...
