(57) [Summary] [Structure] Amino acid sequence formula Thr-Glu-Trp-Z-Pro-Cys-Ser-V A DNA encoding an immunologically active peptide containing al-Thr-Cys-Gly-Asn-Gly (Z is Ser or Thr), a recombinant DNA cloning vector containing this DNA, and a single-cell microorganism into which the DNA has been introduced. [Effect] Cross-react with a malaria pathogen, which can induce an immune response in humans either alone or when bound to a carrier molecule, It makes it possible to produce immunologically active synthetic peptides which are resistant to infection by malaria pathogens. |
