[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/ | [https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/FPC2A_PLAF7 FPC2A_PLAF7] Cysteine protease which cleaves native host hemoglobin and globin in the food vacuole during the asexual blood stage (PubMed:10887194, PubMed:15070727, PubMed:15964982, PubMed:16777845, PubMed:19357776, PubMed:25791019). The binding to host hemoglobin is pH-sensitive and only occurs at acidic pH (PubMed:16777845). Cleaves ankyrin and protein 4.1, two components of host erythrocyte membrane cytoskeleton required for the stability of the erythrocyte membrane, and thus may be involved in parasite release (PubMed:11463472). Preferentially cleaves substrates which have an arginine or lysine at the P1 position and a leucine or phenylalanine at the P2 position (PubMed:10887194, PubMed:19357776).<ref>PMID:10887194</ref> <ref>PMID:11463472</ref> <ref>PMID:15070727</ref> <ref>PMID:15964982</ref> <ref>PMID:16777845</ref> <ref>PMID:19357776</ref> <ref>PMID:25791019</ref> | ||
