PF3D7_1367700 alanine--tRNA ligase

Expression and localization of tRNAAla synthetase (Pf-Ed-ARS). Displays cellular localizations. Upper and lower panels show confocal IFA with pre-immune sera and with anti-histidine antibodies, whereas the middle panel depicts cytoplasmic staining of Pf-DTD. Data clearly show in the parasite apicoplast as well as in the cytoplasm. The parasite line used was GFP-tagged (strain D10 ACPleader-GFP) where apicoplast fluoresces green. DAPI staining is in blue while aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases are stained with Alexa594 (red).
