Antibodies against multiple merozoite surface antigens of the human malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum inhibit parasite maturation and red blood cell invasion

BACKGROUND: Plasmodium falciparum merozoites expose at their surface a large protein complex, which is composed of fragments of merozoite surface protein 1 (MSP-1; called MSP-1(83), MSP-1(30), MSP-1(38), and MSP-1(42)) plus associated processing products of MSP-6 and MSP-7. During erythrocyte invasi...
