method:	antigen inhibition

Study

name:	Rationale for development of a synthetic vaccine against Plasmodium falciparum malaria.
description:	The circumsporozoite protein contains multiple tandem repeats of the sequence NANP. The epitope inhibited binding of mAbs 2C11 and 3D6 to P. falciparum spororzoites. It required a 10-fold lower concentration of the peptides (NANP)₃ or (NANP)₄ to inhibit binding.
