title: Studies on glycoproteins in the human malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum. Identification of a myristilated 45kDa merozoite membrane glycoprotein.
abstract: A murine monoclonal antibody has been used to characterise a 45,000 Da antigen that is associated with the surface membrane of merozoites of the human malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum. The antigen is a glycoprotein and incorporates myristic acid.
