May cleave preferentially denatured hemoglobin that has been cleaved by PMI (PubMed:8844673). Digestion of host Hb is an essential step which provides the parasite with amino acids for protein synthesis, and regulates osmolarity (Probable).<ref>PMID:11782538</ref> <ref>PMID:15574427</ref> <ref>PMID:8844673</ref> | ||
