An isolated and purified protein which is Plasmodium falciparum HGPRT enzyme. 6. An expression vector comprising a DNA sequence encoding for an enzyme selected from the group consisting of (1) P. falciparum HGPRT enzyme; and (2) a HGPRT active mutant of P. falciparum HGPRT enzyme or a fragment thereof having substantially the same activity as the enzyme wherein an amino acid residue has been inserted, substituted or deleted in or from the amino acid sequence of the enzyme or its fragment. 7. A purified protein isolated from a recombinant organism transformed with a vector that codes for the expression of Plasmodium falciparum HGPRT said protein having substantially the same amino acid sequence and substantially the same HGPRT activity as the protein according to Claim 1.Page: Previous 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 NextLast modified: November 3, 2007
