Abstract

Highlights: [•] PfSUB3 possesses serine protease activity in its C-terminal region. [•] Plasmodium falciparum profilin interacts with mature PfSUB3. [•] Mature PfSUB3 proteolyses recombinant PfPRF in in vitro assays. [•] PfPRF induces secretion of TNF-α and IL-12 in mouse bone marrow dendritic cells. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
