Abstract
Monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) specific for the P domain of the Plasmodium falciparum P0 phosphoriboprotein (PfP0) blocked the invasion of RBCs by P. falciparum. Vaccination with this P-domain peptide protected mice upon malaria parasite challenge. The absolute specificity of the MAbs and the PfP0 P peptide makes them potential protective malaria reagents.
