ABSTRACT
Malaria vaccines are being developed against different stages in the parasite's life cycle. Although not directly protective ,the sexual stage vaccines would induce antibodies that would prevent infection of mosquitoes when ingestedin a bloodmeal containing sexual stage parasites. pfs25 has been tested to be an important candidate antigen for malarial transmission blocking vaccine . In this report we analyzed the complete code of pfs25 gene of Plasmodium falciparum PFD-3/YN isolate. The result shows that the gene encoding pfs25 of PED-3/YN isolate has a mutant which generates a PstI endonuclease restriction site and shares 99.2% nucleotide homology with that of NF4 isolate.
