A) Reactivity of PFD0020c domains against gC1qR and EPCR by ELISA-based binding assays. Antibody-mediated inhibition of B) binding to gC1qR or CD36 of P. falciparum Pf3D7 gC1qR, Pf3D7 CD36; C) binding to human brain endothelial cells (HBMEC) of Pf3D7 gC1qR and D) binding to gC1qR of four P. falciparum Mozambican isolates. The gC1qR binding levels in absence of antibodies were 299 IEs/mm2 (SD 53) for Pf3D7gC1qR; 202 IEs/mm2 (SD 11) for Pfmoz1; 92 IEs/mm2 (SD 17) for Pfmoz2; 74 IEs/mm2 (SD 8) for Pfmoz3; and 81 IEs/mm2 (SD 7) for Pfmoz4. The CD36 binding level in absence of antibodies was 615 IEs/mm2 (SD 27) for Pf3D7CD36. Binding is expressed as the percentage of mean binding in absence of antibodies. Bars represent the mean and standard deviation. * indicates P<0.05 and **P<0.001.
