Genetic diversity of vaccine candidate antigens in Plasmodium falciparum isolates from the Amazon basin of Peru
2008
Background
Several of the intended Plasmodium falciparum vaccine candidate antigens are highly polymorphic and could render a vaccine ineffective if their antigenic sites were not represented in the vaccine. In this study, characterization of genetic variability was performed in major B and T-cell epitopes within vaccine candidate antigens in isolates of P. falciparum from Peru.
