This protein is directed to a novel compartment within the cytoplasm of the infected red blood cell and surrounds the parasite, likely within the parasitophorous vacuole membrane. It plays a role in the interaction between the host cell and the parasite. The protein shares a common epitope with the circumsporozoite protein, suggesting a potential structural or functional similarity between the two. This shared epitope may contribute to immune recognition or response, highlighting the importance of these proteins in the pathogenesis of the infection. Their involvement in parasite survival and host cell manipulation is critical for the infection process.
