Dynamics of ER Mitochondria Contact (ERMC) in malaria parasite P. falciparum. (A) Live fluorescence microscopy images taken at different developmental stages of intraerythrocytic life cycle of PfPSS-GFP transgenic parasites. Mitochondria is stained with live fluorescent dye MitoTracker Red. Parasites were different time points (hpi- hours post infection). Parasites nuclei are stained with DAPI.

Three dimensional reconstruction of selected confocal images using series of Zā€stacks with IMARIS software. Mitochondria are stained with MitoTracker (Red) and nuclei are stained with DAPI (Blue).
