Semi-synthesis of the C-terminal region of PfRALP1: an alternative strategy for producing a hard-to-express merozoite protein

Plasmodium falciparum rhoptry-associated leucine zipper-like protein 1 (PfRALP1) is an indispensable protein involved in merozoite invasion of human red blood cells (RBCs), leading to the deadly malaria disease.
