Name :

Anti-MSP1 Block 3 [9.5]

Catalogue Number :

152511

Antigen/Gene or Protein Targets :

MSP-1 Block 3

Reactivity :

Plasmodium

Relevance :

In considering methods for immunological control of Plasmodium falciparum malaria it is essential to know more about antigenic diversity within and between natural populations of the parasite from major endemic areas. A successful malaria vaccine would stimulate an individual's immune system to respond to the malaria parasite and prevent serious clinical disease. Many different groups are currently developing potential vaccines. Several candidates are based on a protein called MSP1 (merozoite surface protein 1) which is found on the surface of the blood stage form of the malaria parasite.

Host :

Mouse

Immunogen :

Schizont extracts

Subclass :

IgG2b kappa

Research Area :

Parasitology

Notes :

Recognises the Block 3 region of MSP-1, specifically dependent on the presence of (127-Q) to (Q-287) version of Block 3. This sequence found in the MAD20/RO33 isolates (see Miller et al 1993 for details of MSP-1 sequence comparisons- MSP-1 residue numbering in this paper is slightly different. UK Biosafety level: 1
