PF3D7_0612700 6-cysteine protein p12

Localization of Pf12 fused to a GFP reporter and expressed in an inducible system that allows strong surface expression. MS, mid-schizont; LS, late schizont; M, merozoite. Pf12 fusion protein was localized to the merozoite surface. Pf12 is a GPI-anchored protein.
