Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

This disclosure provides antibodies that are useful for preventing and/or treating malaria. The epitope to which the antibodies bind is in close proximity to the conserved proteolytic cleavage site of P. falciparum circumsporozoite protein (CSP), and the antibodies provided in this disclosure can prevent cleavage and inhibit P. falciparum sporozoites from invading the liver.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A cDNA molecule comprising a coding sequence for a variable region of a heavy chain of an antibody, wherein the variable region comprises: (i) a first heavy chain complementarity determining region (CDR H ) comprising the amino acid sequence SEQ ID NO:1; a second CDR H comprising the amino acid sequence SEQ ID NO:2; and a third CDR H comprising the amino acid sequence SEQ ID NO:3; or (ii) the complementarity determining regions of the heavy chain variable region of the antibody deposited under Accession No. MRA-1242. 2. The cDNA molecule of claim 1 , wherein the variable region comprises the first CDR H comprising the amino acid sequence SEQ ID NO:1; the second CDR H comprising the amino acid sequence SEQ ID NO:2; and the third CDR H comprising the amino acid sequence SEQ ID NO:3. 3. The cDNA molecule of claim 1 , wherein the variable region comprises the complementarity determining regions of the heavy chain of the antibody deposited under Accession No. MRA-1242. 4. A cDNA molecule, comprising a coding sequence for a variable region of a light chain of an antibody, wherein the variable region comprises: (i) a first CDR L comprising the amino acid sequence SEQ ID NO:4; a second CDR L comprising the amino acid sequence SEQ ID NO:5; and a third CDR L comprising the amino acid sequence SEQ ID NO:6; or (ii) the complementarity determining regions of the light chain variable region of the antibody deposited under Accession No. MRA-1242. 5. The cDNA molecule of claim 4 , wherein the light chain variable region comprises the first CDR L comprising the amino acid sequence SEQ ID NO:4; the second CDR L comprising the amino acid sequence SEQ ID NO:5; and the third CDR L comprising the amino acid sequence SEQ ID NO:6. 6. The cDNA molecule of claim 4 , wherein the light chain variable region comprises the complementarity determining regions of the light chain of the antibody deposited under Accession No. MRA-1242. 7. The cDNA molecule of claim 3 , further comprising a coding sequence for a light chain variable region comprising the complementarity determining regions of the antibody deposited under Accession No. MRA-1242.
