Alternative Name | Ookinete Pvs25; Ookinete Surface Protein Pvs-25 |
UniProt | D9D8M0 |
Immunogen | Recombinant P.vivax Pvs25. |
Application Notes | This antibody binds to Pvs25, a Plasmodium surface protein constiting of a triangular arrangement of four epidermal growth-factor-like domainst tether on the cell by a glycosylphosphatidylinositol anchor. The antibody blocks the transmission of P. vivax to mosquitoes from the blood of a P. vivax-infected chimpanzee and from the blood of patients with vivax malaria. |
