""Universal"" T helper cell determinants enhance immunogenicity of a Plasmodium falciparum merozoite surface antigen peptide.
|
| description: |
The authors identify this epitope as having been derived from the P. falciparum major merozoite surface antigen (PMMSA, gp195). The provided sequence does not match the current SP/Genbank database sequences. It is cited to be derived from the K1 strain sequence as published in J. Mol. Blol. 195:273. In that reference the sequence provided matches the current SP/Gb sources, with a D6, K19 and T20.
When 12 inbred mice strains were belonging to 7 different H-2 haplotypes were immunized with the epitope, only one (SJL, H-2:s) responded with a high anti-p8 titer as measured on day 70 p.i..
