Title: An epitope recognised by inhibitory monoclonal antibodies that react with a 51 kilodalton merozoite surface antigen in Plasmodium falciparum. Author: Epping RJ, Goldstone SD, Ingram LT, Upcroft JA, Ramasamy R, Cooper JA, Bushell GR, Geysen HM. Journal: Mol Biochem Parasitol; 1988 Feb; 28(1):1-10. PubMed ID: 2453800. Abstract: Monoclonal antibodies designated 8G10/48 and 9E3/48 raised against mature asexual blood stages of Plasmodium falciparum inhibit parasite growth in vitro. Both antibodies bind to an epitope which includes the linear sequence Ser Thr Asn Ser and which is present in a cDNA clone from a P. falciparum expression library. These antibodies recognise a glycosylated antigen of approximately 51 kDa which is located on the merozoite surface membrane.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
