PF3D7_0409400 chaperone protein dnaj; heat shock protein 40

Localization of PfDnaJA. Immunofluorescence confocal microscopy. (B) shows MitoTracker Red signal (image 1), PfDnaJA fluorescence (image 2) and their overlap (image 3) in the trophozoite. Image 4 is the corresponding phase-contrast scan while image 5 is the overall merged image. (C) shows colocalization of GFP and PfDnaJA in the D10-ACPleader-GFP line. Parasite nuclei stained with DAPI (images 1 and 6), GFP (images 2 and 7), PfDnaJA (images 3 and 8) and their overlay (images 4 and 9) are shown.
