PfEMP1 PfEMP1

Parasites were tagged by single cross-over homologous recombination, the endogenous gene locus to include the GFP coding sequence. PFE55INT. Co-immunofluorescence analysis on erythrocytes infected with PFE55INT, using anti-sera directed against STEVOR (A), MAHRP1 MAL13P1.413 (B), KAHRP PFB0100c (C). Fluorescence channels are shown individually in black/white for highest contrast. All images are maximal projections of Z-stack serial sections. In merge image green, GFP; red, STEVOR (A), MAHRP (B), KAHRP (C) or ATS domain of PfEMP1 (D); blue, Hoechst. Inset shows enlargement of merge (white box). The fusion protein labelled punctate structures within the infected erythrocytebut clearly not in Maurer’s clefts.
