PF3D7_1028700 merozoite TRAP-like protein

MTRAP is cleaved irrespective of both invasion and egress from the schizont. (C) treated with E-64 to prevent egress or (D) from untreated culture, co-labelled AMA1 monoclonal antibodies (green) and rM-tail (left), rM-mid (middle) or rM-tsr (right) (red in respective images). Scale bars = 1 μm.
