An Erythrocyte Membrane-Associated Antigen, PvTRAg-26 of Plasmodium vivax: A Study of Its Antigenicity and Immunogenicity

Background:Plasmodium tryptophan-rich (TR) proteins have been proposed as potential vaccine candidate antigens. Among them, P. vivax tryptophan-rich antigens (PvTR-Ags), which have positionally conserved tryptophan residues in a TR domain, are highly antigenic in humans. Several of these antigens, i...
