TRAF2 and malaria: Previously detected HLA-A2.1-restricted CTL epitopes [7], HLGNVKYLV (residues 3–11) and GIAGGLALL (residues 500–508), and HLA-B8-restricted CTL epitopes [7], [8], ASKNKEKAL (residues 107–115) and KNKEKALII (residues 109–117), were not found to be variable in P. falciparum isolates in Ratchaburi province, Thailand as well as Tak province [13], suggesting that malaria vaccines based on these TRAP epitopes would be effective in Thailand.
