Additional remarks genetic modificationIn P. falciparum a low-molecular-weight protein complex, consisting of three non-covalently linked members, RAP1, RAP2 and RAP3 localises to the rhoptries of merozoites. RAP2 and RAP3 are encoded by adjacent genes (PFE0080c; PFE0075c), organised in a head to tail fashion on chromosome 5. Both rap2 and rap3 show a high homology with the single copy, syntenic gene, rap2/3 of P. berghei. The RAP proteins are implicated in the invasion of the erythrocyte by the merozoite.

Gen Bank accession number P. berghei rap2/3: XM 669159.1

See RMgm-209 for a mutant expressing a GFP-tagged RAP2/3 protein.
