A malaria invasion receptor, the 175-kilodalton erythrocyte binding antigen of Plasmodium falciparum recognizes the terminal Neu5Ac(alpha 2- 3)Gal- sequences of glycophorin A

Plasmodium falciparum malaria parasites invade human erythrocytes by means of a parasite receptor for erythrocytes, the 175-kD erythrocyte binding antigen (EBA-175). Similar to invasion efficiency, binding requires N-acetylneuraminic acid (Neu5Ac) on human erythrocytes, specifically the glycophorins...
