In silico modelling of interaction between PfRH53D7 or PfRH5M with BSG. a Three dimensional space filled model of the PfRH53D7 (red) and BSG (cyan) complex was shown with the residue C203 highlighted with green color. b A model of the PfRH53D7-BSG complex with Y203 was highlighted in yellow was also shown. Energy of interactions (kcal/mol) between BSG and c PfRH53D7 or d PfRH5M was plotted for each amino acid residue of PfRH5 ligand. The differential interaction patterns around amino acid position 203 for both alleles (C/Y) were indicated (inset)
