The unmutated ancestor sequences (WEN-1UA, WEN-3UA) of the rCl13-neutralizing monoclonal antibodies WEN-1 and WEN-3 (Figure S1; [Eschli et al., 2007 (link), Seiler et al., 1998 (link)]) were identified by IgBlast (IgBlast) sequence analysis. All mutations deviating from the closest germline V(D)J heavy (HC) and light chain (LC) sequences were reverted. The corresponding cDNAs were synthesized (Genscript) and introduced into HC and LC expression cassettes for recombinant expression in a mouse IgG1 format (provided by Dr. Shozo Izui, University of Geneva). The antibodies were produced by transient co-transfection of the HC and LC expression plasmids in CHO cells (Protein Expression Core Facility, PECF, of the Swiss Federal Technical Highschool, EPFL, Lausanne, Switzerland). The antibodies were purified on an ÄKTAprime plus purification system using Protein G columns (GE healthcare). After 24 hours of PBS dialysis, the purified antibodies were quantified by IgG ELISA. MOPC-21 (BioXcell) served as isotype control antibody. The KL25-W104L, KL25-F106L and KL25-Y108S antibodies as well as a matching KL25 wild-type control antibody (Bruns et al., 1983 (link)) were obtained by analogous procedures, except that a mouse IgG2a expression format was used for these experiments.

The serum samples used in this study were pooled from eight P. vivax-infected patients from the ROK with a high response to the particular antigen of interest, which was screened by immunoscreening with a protein microarray. The control comprised pooled serum samples from eight healthy individuals from a nonendemic area of the ROK. Total IgG antibodies were purified from the pooled serum samples by using protein G columns according to the manufacturer’s protocol (GE Healthcare Life Sciences). The isolated IgG antibodies were dialyzed against RPMI 1640 medium and concentrated using centrifugal devices (Merck Millipore, Darmstadt, Germany) with a 30-kDa cut-off value to a concentration of 10 to 20 mg/mL. PvRBP1a, Pv41, and PvRhopH2 recombinant proteins (2–3 mg each) were immobilized on cyanogen bromide (CNBr)-activated Sepharose 4 fast flow beads (GE Healthcare Life Sciences) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The total isolated IgG antibodies (0.5 mL) was loaded to the column filled with antigen coupled beads and eluted using an elution buffer (0.1 M glycine, pH 2.7). The eluted antigen-specific IgGs were immediately neutralized with a Tris buffer (pH 9.0) and dialyzed against incomplete RPMI 1640 medium to the desired concentration.

To investigate the effects of anti-RON4 antibodies during sporozoite invasion of hepatocytes, 20,000 or 30,000 PbANKA-GFP sporozoites were collected from salivary glands at days 20 to 28 post-feeding and inoculated onto HepG2 cells with medium containing anti-RON4 or anti-glutathione S-transferase (GST) rabbit IgG at 62.5 µg/mL, 125 µg/mL, 250 µg/mL, 500 µg/mL, or 1 mg/mL and incubated for 1.5 hours in culture medium in an eight-well chamber slide. For IgG purification, antiserum against RON4 or GST was applied to protein G columns (GE Healthcare, NJ, USA) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. As a negative control, PBS was added instead of IgG. The cells were washed with the culture medium three times and further incubated for 4.5 hours with the culture medium at 37°C with 5% CO2. After a total of 6 hours of incubation, cells were washed with PBS and fixed with 10% formalin and permeabilized by 0.1% Triton X-100. The parasites were detected by IFA using antibodies against UIS4 and CSP as described above. The number of infected parasites identified as PVM-positive was counted. Experiments were repeated four times with three wells for Fig. 6 and twice with two wells for the antibody dose dependency in Fig. S9.

The generation of monoclonal antibodies was carried out as follows. 6-7 week-old Balb/C mice were immunised subcutaneously with 200 μL emulsified antigen and 100 μg immunogenic peptide [KLGHPDTLNQ-GGC-Keyhole Limpet Hemocyanin] using Stimune Immunogenic Adjuvant [Invitrogen]. The mouse with the highest and best reactivity serum titre was selected for monoclonal antibody production. Splenocytes were fused with SP2/0 myeloma cells to produce hybridoma cells, and these were cultured into 96-well microtitre plates. The supernatants were screened for reactivity against the selection peptide [KLGHPDTLNQ] and elongated [VKLGHPDTLNQ], truncated [LGHPDTLNQ], and non-sense peptides [YRDDLKKLLET] as well as against native material [cleavage material] in an indirect competitive ELISA. The clone with the best reactivity was chosen for ELISA development, and antibodies were purified [99% purity] using protein-G-columns according to the manufacturer’s instructions [GE Healthcare Life Sciences, Little Chalfont, UK].

107 TCID50 of FAdV-4 isolate SD2015 was used to immunize 6-week-old BALB/C mice four times every 10 days. At day 4 following the fourth immunization, the splenic cells from one immunized mouse were collected and fused with SP2/0 cells with PEG1500 (Roche, Mannheim, Germany), as previously described [22 (link)]. After culture with HAT-selective medium (Sigma), hybridoma cells secreting antibodies against the fiber-2 protein of FAdV-4 were screened using ELISA coating with purified GST-Fiber2 (generated in our laboratory). After sub-cloning of the positive hybridoma cells, the characteristics of mAbs secreted by these positive clones were identified through immunofluorescence assay, ELISA, immunoprecipitation and neutralization testing. The isotype of mAb was determined with a mouse mAb isotyping kit (Thermo Scientific, Massachusetts, USA) according to the manufacturer’s protocol. The mAbs in ascites were generated as previously described and purified using protein G columns (GE Healthcare Life sciences, Uppsala, Sweden) [23 (link)].
