Abstract
The objectives of this project are to: 1. Examine binding of parasite-derived MICS and recombinant-expressed individual adhesive domains to target host cells 2. Develop assays for competitive inhibition of MICS binding to host cells using soluble mediators 3. Develop in vitro assays for examining the direct binding of MICS to immobilised ligands 4. Prepare plasmids suitable for the targeted knock-out of genes encoding MICS through homologous recombination in transfected parasites
