Parasitophorous vacuole {ECO:0000269|PubMed:29567995}. Note=(Microbial infection) In P.falciparum-infected red blood cells, VTN internalization is detected at the early trophozoite stage (PubMed:29567995). Colocalizes with SERA5 at the schizont stage and with SERA5 P47 at the merozoite surface (PubMed:29567995). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:29567995}.
