Parasites infecting α-TTP knockout mice intend to invade immature RBCs. Percentages of uninfected mature RBCs (UIRBC), infected mature RBCs (IRBC), uninfected reticulocytes (UIRtc), and infected reticulocytes (IRtc) from total RBCs of C57BL/6J in panel A and α-TTP knockout mice in panel C. Percentages of infected mature RBCs (gray bar) and infected reticulocytes (white bar) from total infected RBCs of C57BL/6J in panel B and α-TTP knockout mice in panel D (n = 6).
