We further calculated the fraction of time that labeled cells spent at elevated intracellular calcium levels and observed a difference between 24 and 48 h.p.i., with a larger difference occurring at 72 h.p.i.
Thus, [35S]methionine/cysteine-labeled spent merozoite supernatants were used as the source of RBC-binding proteins, and when the eluate was immunoprecipitated with anti-RH5 antiserum, a dominant band at ∼63 kDa was seen (Fig. 3A, lane WT).
