We previously identified a Plasmodium falciparum (Pf) protein of unknown function encoded by single-copy gene, PF3D7_1134300, as target antibodies in plasma Tanzanian children whole-proteome differential screen. Here we characterize this blood-stage antigen that localizes to the surface membranes both parasitized erythrocytes and merozoites, hence its designation Pf erythrocyte membrane merozoite 1 (PfEMMA1). Mouse anti-PfEMMA1 antisera affinity-purified human inhibited growth P. strains up...
