PF3D7_0222100 Pfmc-2TM Maurer's cleft two transmembrane protein

Immunoelectron micrographs of young trophozoite-, late trophozoite-, young schizont-, and late schizont-infected erythrocytes reactive with rabbit antisera against PfMC-2TM peptides, 703, 705, and 713 and Mab SP1A6 against the 130 kDa Maurer’s cleft protein. a–c Peptide-specific antisera are reactive with the PV/PVM and weakly around clefts. d–f Mab SP1A6 is reactive with structures within the parasite in young trophozoites, probably the endoplasmic reticulum (d), late trophozoites in erythrocyte cytoplasm under knobs (e), and in young schizonts around longitudinal clefts in the erythrocyte cytoplasm (f).
