Abstract excerpt

Extensive polymorphism in the genes encoding for surface antigens of Plasmodium falciparum and Plasmodium vivax has been a serious impediment for malaria vaccine development. One such antigen is the merozoite surface protein-1 (MSP-1). The MSP-1 precursor after proteolytic cleavage generates a C-terminal fragment of 42 kDa (MSP-1(42)), which subsequently produces 33 kDa (MSP-1(33)) and 19 kDa (MSP-1(19))...
