Safety and immunogenicity in man of a synthetic peptide malaria vaccine against Plasmodium falciparum sporozoites.

abstract：:A long-sought goal in structural biology has been the imaging of membrane proteins in their membrane environments. This goal has been achieved with electron crystallography in those special cases where a protein forms highly ordered arrays in lipid bilayers. It has also been achieved by NMR methods in proteins up to 5...
