Fig 1. HMG-box as a potential biomarker of Plasmodium falciparum.

Fig 1

(A) Workflow for the identification of highly abundant proteins of Plasmodium falciparum as novel biomarker candidates. (B) Structure predictions by homology of HMG-box from P. falciparum and its human homolog using the Swiss-model suite [33]. (C) BLASTp suite of HMG-box Pf shows a high percentage of identity with other pathogenic Plasmodium species. (D) Clustal Omega (EMBL-EBI, UK) multiple sequence alignment for HMG-box Pf and HMG-box Hs. Both domains have 71 amino acids and share 39.4% of identity and 54.9% of similarity.
