“…Moreover, mixtures formed by Spz-and Mrzderived mHABPs binding to different HLA-DRb1 genetic backgrounds and having such side-chain orientation induced sterile immunity against very different functionally relevant targets or, as we have called them, the malaria parasite's Achilles' heel [81]. The binding--structure--function relationship was taken into account when developing the IMPIPS concept, requiring the determination of stereo-electron and topochemical characteristics essential for MHC--IMPIPS--TCR complex formation [11,86,91,98,102,103]. Figure 5 outlines the aforementioned practical approach, using malaria as model, for developing a logical and rational methodology, based on physicochemical principles, which could be followed when developing vaccines against different diseases which, even in the twenty-first century, continue to scourge humankind.…”
