This paper focuses on the discretisation of the hydrodynamic transport equations for electrons in sub-micron MOSFET structures. In particular initialisation of the electron temperature equation, and the important problem of accurately calculating the energy input term f J E j on a generalised triangular FE mesh will be considered. The discretisation is applied to the calculation of substrate le...

Plasmodium falciparum utilizes multiple ligand-receptor interactions for invasion. The invasion ligand EBA-175 is being developed as a major blood-stage vaccine candidate. EBA-175 mediates parasite invasion of host erythrocytes in a sialic acid-dependent manner through its binding to the erythrocyte receptor glycophorin A. In this study, we addressed the ability of naturally acquired human anti...

The erythrocyte binding antigen EBA-175 is a 175-kDa Plasmodium falciparum protein which mediates merozoite invasion of erythrocytes in a sialic acid-dependent manner. The purpose of this study was to produce recombinant EBA-175 polypeptide domains which have previously been identified as being involved in the interaction of EBA-175 with erythrocytes and to determine whether these polypeptides ...

Monoclonal antibody 175 recognizes a cell-surface antigen on more than 80% of nucleated ovine bone marrow cells (BMC). The distribution is unusual, as the majority of differentiated myeloid and erythroid cells express the antigen (175 antigen), whereas mast cells, basophils, and the majority of lymphocytes do not. The level of 175 antigen expression has been shown to increase as BMC differentia...

Erythrocyte invasion by Plasmodium requires molecules present both on the merozoite surface and within the specialized organelles of the apical complex. The Plasmodium erythrocyte binding protein family includes the Plasmodium falciparum sialic acid-binding protein, EBA-175 (erythrocyte binding antigen-175), which binds sialic acid present on glycophorin A of human erythrocytes. We address the ...
