PF3D7_0201800 knob associated heat shock protein 40

KAHsp40 does not associate with Maurer’s cleft. (A–C) IFA reveals that both KAHsp40 and MAHRP1 are present in discrete and different foci in the infected erythrocyte, however, they do not co-localize with each other in spite of signals being in close proximity (highlighted by white arrows). The images shown have been taken at the trophozoite stage.
