Anti-plasmodium parasite antibodies

The technology provided herein relates to novel human antibodies against Plasmodium parasites, in particular against the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum. The present disclosure pertains to antibodies against apical membrane antigen 1 (AMA-1). These antibodies have high affinity e.g. to Plasmodium falciparum schizonts and merozoites, inhibit the reinvasion of merozoites into erythrocytes and thereby neutralize parasitic multiplication.
