PfSPP localises to the parasite nuclear periphery. IFA of ring, trophozite and schizont stages of PfSPP-HA labeled with anti-PfERC and HA antibodies. Scale bar 1 μm. Co-labeling with ER markers BiP and ER-calcium binding protein (ERC) by IFA showed strong coincidental labeling with PfSPP fluorescence across the entire intra-erythrocytic development of the parasite. SPP is localized to the ER.
