PF3D7_0524700 mitochondrial import receptor subunit TOM22, putative

Morphologies of the mitochondria labeled with mNeonGreen in the PfDyn2 sufficient parasites. In the PfDyn2-3HAapt line, the mitochondria were genetically labeled with mNeonGreen-Tom22. Mitochondria were also labeled with MitoTracker Red CMXRos. R, ring. ET, early trophozoite, LT, late trophozoite. ES, early schizont. LS, late schizont. M, merozoite. Images were taken from a Nickon Ti microscope in live conditions and processed by Nikon NIS elements software.
