Cryosections of ring/trophozoite-infected Erythrocytes were probed with anti-Pf ERD2 (A) antibodies from non-immune sera (B) or anti-Pfrab6 (C) and goat anit-rabbit antibodies conjugated to 5 nm gold particles. In panel A, labeling of PfERD2 is detected in a perinuclear, tubulovesicular structure (*) with 1:100 anti PfERD2. The nucleus is marked by a n. Bar indicates 0.08 mm. In panel B, labeling of Pfrab6 (1:1OO) is seen in tubulovesicular clusters in peripheral regions of the cell. One cluster (large *) is proximal to the digestive food vacuole (marked with v). A second tubulovesicular cluster (small *) lies next to the parasite plasma membrane (marked by ppm). Bar indicates 0.1 mm.
