Antibodies to Malaria Peptide Mimics Inhibit Plasmodium falciparum Invasion of Erythrocytes

Apical membrane antigen 1 (AMA1) is expressed on the surfaces of Plasmodium falciparum merozoites and is thought to play an important role in the invasion of erythrocytes by malaria parasites. To select for peptides that mimic conformational B-cell epitopes on AMA1, we screened a phage display libra...
