Résumé
Merozoite surface protein 2 (MSP2) is a potential vaccine candidate against malaria, although its functional role is yet to be elucidated. Previous studies showed that MSP2 can interact with membranes, which may facilitate merozoite invasion into the host cell. The N-terminal 25 residues of MSP2 (MSP2
