Extensive Antigenic Polymorphism within the Repeat Sequence of the Plasmodium falciparum Merozoite Surface Protein 1 Block 2 Is Incorporated in a Minimal Polyvalent Immunogen

Polymorphism in pathogen antigens presents a complex challenge for vaccine design. A prime example is the N-terminal block 2 region of the Plasmodium falciparum merozoite surface protein 1 (MSP1), to which allele-specific antibodies have been associated with protection from malaria. In a Zambian pop...
