Allele-specific antibodies to Plasmodium falciparum merozoite surface protein-2 and protection against clinical malaria.
IgG and IgG3 antibodies to merozoite surface protein-2 (MSP-2) of Plasmodium falciparum have been associated with protection from clinical malaria in independent studies. We determined whether this protection was allele-specific by testing whether children who developed clinical malaria lacked IgG/I...
