"Monoclonal antibodies against Plasmodium vivax Apical Membrane Antigen-1; revealing the mechanism of action of AMA1" with Dr Lee Yeoh

We have recently developed monoclonal antibodies specific to Plasmodium vivax AMA1. These have shown extremely high reactivity to AMA1 via functional and inhibition assays in vitro. These antibodies are promising therapeutics in themselves, but are also exceptionally useful for their capability in dissecting the mechanism of PvAMA1's function. Recent data suggest that PvAMA1 potentially facilitates invasion via two independent interactions
