E. Parasites EK-GFP or its S37A mutant were synchronized and parasites were allowed to mature to schizonts/segmentors. The graph shows average number of merozoites per schizont from three biological replicates. Each replicate represents an average of merozoites from 30-40 schizonts. (mean± SEM, n=3; biological replicates, *p<0.05, t-test).
