Localization and distribution of BoSBP3-like. Immunofluorescence and electron microscopy analysis of BoSBP3-like in the smears. Anti-BoSBP3-like serum (red) and nuclear staining of DAPI (blue). a Invasion stage. b The post-invasion stage of a single parasite. c At the post-invasion stage of a single parasite, BoSBP3-like was beginning to be secreted into the cytoplasm of iRBC. d At the post-invasion stage of paired parasites, BoSBP3-like was secreted into the cytoplasm of iRBC. e Negative control: the primary antibody was serum from a naïve rabbit. f Negative control: the second antibody only without incubation with the primary antibody. Scale-bars: a-f, 5 μm
