Consequences of reduced umbilical and increased foetal cerebral flow during malaria crisis on foetal behaviour.

abstract：:Sequence comparisons have recently shown that the Schistosoma mansoni protein Sm32 is similar to asparaginyl endoproteinases, a novel family of cysteine proteinases, of which the legumains from legumes are the best characterized. By synthesizing and employing fluorogenic peptide substrates for the specific detection o...
