Surface antigens of malaria merozoites. A high molecular weight precursor is processed to an 83,000 mol wt form expressed on the surface of Plasmodium falciparum merozoites

A technique was developed for obtaining high yields of naturally released Plasmodium falciparum merozoites from synchronous cultures of parasitized erythrocytes. The cultured erythrocytes were treated with trypsin to prevent reinvasion (6), and the released merozoites that accumulated extracellularl...
