Fig 1. PAM1.4 binding profile to genetically diverse VAR2CSA recombinants.

VAR2CSA protein sequence diversity of the seven full-length VAR2CSA ectodomain has been analysed to highlight (A) sequence identity within the seven phylogenetically distant alleles of VAR2CSA, reported in Renn et al. [12], by multiple alignment of NTS-DBL6 fragments (ranged from 2640 to 2723 amino acids) using BioEdit version 7.0.5.3 software. (B) The structure of VAR2CSA complex with PAM1.4 (PDB:7Z12) reported in Raghavan et al. [11] was used to map the PAMVAC (in blue) and PRIMVAC (in red) vaccine boundaries, while VH:VL chains of PAM1:4 are highlighted in orange and green. (C) The binding level of human monoclonal IgG PAM1.4 and (D) pooled purified IgG from multigravidae (MG) to the seven full-length VAR2CSA (Fv2) recombinants was measured by ELISA. Optical density (OD) units are reported.
