In the current study, the antibody response to the two major allelic forms (F and D) of MSP-1 antigens (MSP-183, MSP-130, MSP-138 and MSP-142) and their associated proteins, MSP-636 and MSP-722, was systematically characterized in an Indian cohort and the responses compared between two different group of malaria patients and healthy controls. Here, ATAD1 is linked to malaria.
