Targeting Plasmodium falciparum Invasion via Antibodies Against Merozoite Surface Enolase That Binds to Band 3 of Human Red Blood Cells

2023-05-16

Abstract excerpt

The antibodies targeting invasive proteins of Plasmodium falciparum (Pf) merozoites is a clever strategy against malaria parasite. The recent finding that Plasmodium merozoites surface enolase is a target for growth neutralizing antibodies has generated interest in identifying its re-ceptor (s) on erythrocytes. In the present study, several biochemical experiments were undertaken involving recombinant Pf enolase a...
