Name :
Anti-Pfs48/45 [3G12]
Catalogue Number :
152491
Antigen/Gene or Protein Targets :
Surface protein Pfs48/45
Reactivity :
Plasmodium
Relevance :
Fertilization and zygote development are obligate features of the malaria parasite life cycle and occur during parasite transmission to mosquitoes. The surface protein PFS48/45 is expressed by male and female gametes of Plasmodium falciparum and PFS48/45 antibodies prevent zygote development and transmission. Pfs 48/45 is therefore a good target antigen of malaria transmission blocking antibodies.
Host :
Mouse
