Erythrocyte binding assay demonstrating the ability of PTRAMP but not CSS to bind to receptors on the erythrocyte surface.
Increasing amounts of recombinant proteins (in μg) were incubated with human erythrocytes, before repeated separation steps through oil and elution of bound protein. Immunoblots of eluted proteins are shown, probed with anti-His antibody. Recombinant RH5 and MSP3 were used as positive and negative controls respectively. Molecular mass standards are indicated on the left of each panel (in kDa).
