During the mosquito stage, specifically expressed at day 4 post-infection (PubMed:24893340). Not expressed in sporozoites in the mosquito salivary glands and during the liver stage in the mouse host (PubMed:24893340). Normal blood stage development in the mouse host (PubMed:24893340). In the mosquito, development of oocysts, and sporozoite gliding motility and invasion of salivary glands are normal (PubMed:24893340). Belongs to the peptidase A1 family. It is unclear if PMVII is glycosylated as other members of the same enzyme family, i.e. PMI and PMII, are not.
