ATAD1 and malaria: In hopes of reducing morbidity and mortality caused by P. vivax infection, the most important malaria vaccine candidates are outlined in the preerythrocytic stage: CSP (Circumsporozoite protein) and SSP2/TRAP (Thrombospondin related anonymous protein); asexual erythrocytic cycle: the subunits of MSP-1 (42 kDa, 19 kDa, and a precursor molecule of 200 kDa), MSP-9, DBP-RII (Duffy binding protein receptor-2), and AMA-1 (apical membrane antigen-1), and the antigens of the sexual erythrocytic cycle, Pvs25 and Pvs28.
