摘要: Summary Two-site and competitive ELISA have been developed against a surface antigen of zygotes-ookinetes Plasmodium berghei using monoclonal antibodies (MoAbs) which block transmission the parasite to mosquito. Three such MoAbs studied, each recognized protein an Mr 21 kD (Pbs21) immunoblot techniques. The assays showed that there are at least 3 single B-cell epitopes expressed in Pbs21. One epitope by MoAb 17.9 is conformation dependent bound it interfered with other (12.1 13.1) recognizing different, apparently linear epitope. Glycosylation might not be relevant binding any tested their respective epitopes.
