Abstract:During development of a subunit vaccine, monitoring integrity of the recombinant protein for process development and quality control is critical. Pfs230 is a leading malaria transmission blocking vaccine candidate and the first to reach a Phase 2 clinical trial. The Pfs230 protein is expressed on the surface of gametes, and plays an important role in male fertility. While the potency of Pfs230 protein can be determined by a standard membrane-feeding assay (SMFA) using antibodies from immunized subjects, the pr… Show more
