From: Expression of a type B RIFIN in Plasmodium falciparum merozoites and gametes
Immunofluorescence analysis of PF13_0006 expression in live asexual Plasmodium falciparum parasites. Live schizonts (first row) and merozoites (second row) of the 3D7 parasite line were analyzed by staining with anti-PF13_0006 IgG (green) and anti-MSP-1 Ab (red). As a control, live schizonts (third row) and live merozoites (fourth row) were stained with control IgG (green) and anti-MSP-1 Ab (Red). Nuclei were stained with DAPI (blue). DIC shadow-cast images with the fluorescence image superimposed in the first four coloumns and the fluorescence image (FI) alone in the last coloumn to augment the visualisation of the staining. Scale bar 5 μM.
