Abstract
Protease-dependent processes of the P. falciparum schizogonic cycle are briefly described. The P. falciparum p76 protease is the first example of a biochemically regulated protease, the activation of which is related to merozoite maturation and/or erythrocyte invasion. The main known properties of the p76 protease are reviewed and some original results concerning its biosynthesis and biological properties are described.
