Characterisation of the naturally-acquired antibody response to the surface of Plasmodium falciparum infected erythrocytes

2006-01-01

Abstract excerpt

The surface of <i>P. falciparum</i>-infected erythrocytes is modified by the insertion of immunogenic parasite-encoded proteins; the most extensively studied family is <i>Plasmodium falciparum</i> erythrocyte membrane protein 1, (<i>Pf</i>EMP1). <i>Pf</i>EMP1 undergoes clonal antigenic variation and is responsible for mediating cytoadherence of infected erythrocytes within the microvasculature, characteristics und...
