A newly characterized malaria antigen on erythrocyte and merozoite surfaces induces parasite inhibitory antibodies

<jats:p>We previously identified a Plasmodium falciparum (Pf) protein of unknown function encoded by a single-copy gene, PF3D7_1134300, as a target of antibodies in plasma of Tanzanian children in a whole-proteome differential screen. Here we characterize this protein as a blood-stage antigen...
