Summary

During the characterization of epitopes of the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum, a sequence of the circumsporozoite protein was analysed, and it was found that synthetic peptides corresponding to this sequence are recognized by T cells in association with many different MHC class II molecules, both in mouse and in man.
