analysis of plasmodium vivax merozoite surface protein-1 gene sequences
the emergence of plasmodium vivax in dashte moghan in northwestern iran has become a major concern for iranian's health officials. knowledge of genetic make up of the p. vivax populations in this area would give us an insight into the origin of the prevalent infections and the possible routes they are introduced. this paper reports the analysis of a variable region between the two interspecies ...
متن کاملdiversity of merozoite surface protein-3β gene of plasmodium vivax isolates from iran
background: plasmodium vivax malaria accounts for approximately 88% of malaria cases in iran. there is limited information on genetic diversity of p. vivax in the country and a need to develop and apply an effective vaccine against the disease is necessary. among many potential candidates, msp -3β gene is promising target. this study was designed and carried out to determine the variation of...

background: the worldwide distribution of p. vivax has expanded significantly and the number of reported cases has been on the rise. approximately 88% of malaria cases in iran are caused by plasmodium vivax , and in order to management of the disease, understanding the population genetic structure of the parasite is necessary for designing and applying drugs and vaccines. among many potential c...
متن کاملMolecular genetic characterization of the merozoite surface protein 1 Gene of Plasmodium vivax from reemerging Korean isolates.
Plasmodium vivax merozoite surface protein 1 (PvMSP-1) has been considered a major candidate for the development of an antimalaria vaccine, but the molecule exhibits antigenic diversity among isolates. The extent of genetic polymorphism in the region between interspecies conserved blocks 4 and 5 (ICB4 and ICB5) of the PvMSP-1 gene was analyzed for 30 Korean isolates. Two genotypes, SK-A and SK-...
