From: Two COWP-like cysteine rich proteins from Eimeria nieschulzi (coccidia, apicomplexa) are expressed during sporulation and involved in the sporocyst wall formation

Excystation of sporocyst and sporozoites from pEnOWP2_mCherry transformed oocysts a: Free sporocyst b: Sporocyst during sporozoite excystation. The first of two YFP expressing sporozoites had started to leave the sporocyst c: Sporocyst during sporozoite excystation. The second (of two sporozoites within a sporocyst) is leaving a sporocyst. The red fluorescent sporocyst wall and non fluorescent material remains autonomous from the green fluorescent signals of sporozoite. Scale bar 5 μm. TL: transmitted light; YFP: YFP fluorescence; mCherry: mCherry fluorescence; MCF (multichannel fluorescence) overlay of all fluorescent signals in the row
