Figure 1

Schematic representation of MSP-1 block 2 of P. falciparum isolates from Myanmar. A total of 15 different alleles, including 5 for K1 type and 9 for MAD20 type, were identified by sequence analysis of MSP-1 block 2. K1 type alleles differ in the number and arrangement of SAQ, SGT, SGA and SGP motifs, while MAD20 type alleles differ in the number and arrangement of SGG, SVT, SKG, and SVA motifs. The total number of each allele is indicated.
