Abstract
Summary: Five polymorphic proteins, detected by two-dimensional electrophoresis, were analysed in the parents and progeny of a cross between two clones of the malaria parasitePlasmodium falciparum. The information obtained showed that different forms of each protein were determined by allelic variants of each respective gene. One protein was identified as the parasite enzyme adenosine deaminase. Recombinant parasites were produced at a higher than expected frequency.Keywords
