3D ANALYSIS OF THE TCR/PMHCII COMPLEX FORMATION IN MONKEYS VACCINATED WITH THE FIRST PEPTIDE INDUCING STERILIZING IMMUNITY AGAINST HUMAN MALARIA.

3D analysis of the TCR/pMHCII complex formation in monkeys vaccinated with the first peptide inducing sterilizing immunity against human malaria.

T-cell receptor gene rearrangements were studied in Aotus monkeys developing high antibody titers and sterilizing immunity against the Plasmodium falciparum malaria parasite upon vaccination with the modified synthetic peptide 24112, which was identified in the Merozoite Surface Protein 2 (MSP-2) and is known to bind to HLA-DRbeta1*0403 molecules w

Quantifying Western U.S. Rangelands as Fractional Components with Multi-Resolution Remote Sensing and In Situ Data

Quantifying western U.S.rangelands as a series of fractional components with remote sensing provides a new way to understand these changing ecosystems.Nine rangeland ecosystem components, including percent shrub, sagebrush (Artemisia), big sagebrush, herbaceous, annual herbaceous, litter, and bare ground cover, position-aids along with sagebrush an
