Circumsporozoite (CS) Protein Sequence
H-Val-Thr-Cys-Gly-OH
Size:100
P1(RMB):4560
MW:378.45
One letter sequence:VTCG
Molecular Formula:C14H26N4O6S
Description:The cell-adhesive motif VTCG in region II of malarial circumsporozoite protein has also been found in thrombospondin, properdin, and in a blood-stage antigen of Plasmodium falciparum. It was shown to be the critical sequence for the observed cell-adhesive properties.
