Abstrakt: Immunization of mice with DNA vaccines encoding the full-length form and C and N termini of Plasmodium yoelii merozoite surface protein 1 provided partial protection against sporozoite challenge and resulted in boosting of antibody titers after challenge. In C57BL/6 mice, two DNA vaccines provided protection comparable to that of recombinant protein consisting of the C terminus in Freund's adjuvant.
