Sequence conservation in Plasmodium falciparum alpha-helical coiled coil domains proposed for vaccine development.

<h4>Background</h4>The availability of the P. falciparum genome has led to novel ways to identify potential vaccine candidates. A new approach for antigen discovery based on the bioinformatic selection of heptad repeat motifs corresponding to alpha-helical coiled coil structures yielded...
