Upper: Representative confocal microscopy images of nuclear localization of K23-acetylated PfAlba3 (red, Alexa Fluor 647) throughout the asexual blood stages (ring, trophozoite, and schizont). Parasite nucleus was stained with DAPI. Co-localization of K23-acetylated PfAlba3 with nucleus is shown in merged 1. Merged 2. Depicts K23-acetylated PfAlba3 with nucleus and differential interference contrast (DIC). Three-dimensional view of acetylated PfAlba3 merged with the nucleus within the parasite cell is shown in Figure 3D. Scale bar, 5 mm. Lower: Representative confocal microscopy images of distribution and localization of PfSir2a and acetylated PfAlba3 throughout the parasite asexual blood stages (ring, trophozoite, and schizont). Scale bar, 5 mm.
