PfHsp70-1 is localized throughout P. falciparum parasites under heat shock and the regular culture conditions. 3D7 parasites expressing PfHsp70-1-mCherry were cultured at 37°C (no HS) or 40°C (HS) for 3 hr, followed by live cell confocal microscopy. Representative images are shown (n > 25). DIC, differential interference contrast. Scale bar, 2 mm.
