PF3D7_0731500 erythrocyte binding antigen-175

Left: Immunofluorescence microscopy detected CyRPA to colocalize with micronemal proteins (EBA-175, PfRipr). (Scale bar, 2 μm.)

Right: PfRH5/PfRipr/CyRPA complex is GPI-anchored to the merozoite surface. (A) 3D reconstruction of IFA z-stacks during merozoite invasion, coimmunostained with MSP-1 detected PfRH5, PfRipr, and CyRPA at the apical end of the merozoite surface. In the 3D images, the γ settings were altered for visual representation only,
