From: A single nucleotide polymorphism in the Plasmodium falciparum atg18 gene associates with artemisinin resistance and confers enhanced parasite survival under nutrient deprivation

Fig. 4

An atg18 T38I SNP is associated with higher IC50 values to ART derivatives ex vivo IC50 values for six anti-malarial drugs according to the presence of the atg18 T38I polymorphism and/or the polymorphism associated with resistance for that particular drug. a DHA and b artesunate are synthetic ART derivatives. IC50 values for ART derivatives are displayed against any K13-propeller mutation. c Mefloquine in the presence or absence of mdr copy number variations. d Piperaquine in the presence or absence of plasmepsins 2–3 copy number variations. e Chloroquine in the presence or absence of crt mutations. Given the single value in crtWT/atg18MT, it was not possible to statistically test for differences between this and the other groups. SCN denotes single copy number; ICN denotes increased copy number
