IC50 (nM) comparisons between mutant and wild type alleles at codons 51, 59, and 108 in dhfr and comparison between parasites with wild type versus dhfr N51I/C59R/S108N triple mutation and dhfr N51I/C59R/S108N and dhps A437G quadruple mutation. (a) We found significant increases in the geometric mean IC50 values for ex vivo pyrimethamine susceptibility between mutant and wild type alleles (Mann–Whitney U test, p = 0.0001). Pyrimethamine IC50s were measured ex vivo in 2011 using the DAPI drug assay. (b) IC50s were different between wild type and dhfr N51I/C59R/S108N triple mutation parasites, as well as between wild type and dhfr N51I/C59R/S108N and dhps A437G quadruple mutation parasites (Mann–Whitney U test, p = 0.0002 for both comparisons).
