PF3D7_0729200 1-cys peroxiredoxin

PfClpC-DDD parasites (1G8 clone) grown for 10 days without TMP and supplemented with IPP. These PfClpC-DDD parasites were stained with

specific antibodies. Images from left to right are anti-HA (red), anti-ACP (green), DAPI (parasite nucleus, blue), fluorescence merge, and phase. Z stack images were deconvolved and projected as a combined single image. Scale bar, 5 mm. Immunofluorescence microscopy revealed, however, that IPP-treated PfClpC-DDD parasites survived in the absence of an apicoplast and retained the vesicle-like structures containing PfClpC and ACP.

Lower panel. Immunofluorescence imaging of unsynchronized PfClpP-glmS1 parasites stained with specific antibodies. Images from left to right are anti-V5 (red) and anti-Cpn60 (green) in the upper panel and DAPI (parasite nucleus, blue), along with fluorescence merge, and phase in the lower panel. Z stack images were deconvolved and projected as a combined single image. Scale bar, 5 mm. We were able to detect the apicoplast localization of PfClpP by staining with anti-V5 and anti-Cpn60.
