PfRH5 localization in schizonts and merozoites
A) Immunoconfocal microscopy showing the localization of PfRH5 relative to PfEBA175, a microneme marker. Signals from mature segmented schizonts are shown in the top panes; signals from free merozoites are shown in the bottom panes. B) Immunoconfocal microscopy showing the localization of PfRH5 relative to PfRAP1, a rhoptry marker. Signals from mature schizonts are shown in the top panes; signals from free merozoites are shown in the bottom
panes. Scale bar, 2 μm. Hayton K, Gaur D, Liu A, Takahashi J, Henschen B, Singh S, Lambert L, Furuya T, Bouttenot R, Doll M, Nawaz F, Mu J, Jiang L, Miller LH, Wellems TE.
