PF3D7_1463900 rhoptry neck protein 11, putative

RON11 is essential for intraerythrocytic growth. (E) IFAs showing the localization of RON11 in RON11apt schizont with respect to 2 rhoptry markers: RON4 (neck) and RAP1 (bulb). Images from left to right are phase-contrast, DAPI (nucleus, cyan), anti-HA (magenta), anti-RON4, or RAP1 (yellow), and fluorescence merge. Z stack images were deconvolved and projected as a combined single image. Representative images of 3 biological replicates. (F) Quantification of the colocalization of RON11apt with RON4 and RAP1 as determined by the PCC (n= 3 biological replicates, 4 schizonts per replicate, the underlying data can be found in S1 Data). Error bars = SEM;****p< 0.0001 by unpaired two-tailedttest. HA, hemagglutinin; PCC, Pearson’s correlation coefficient; SD, standard deviation; SEM, standard error of the mean.
