PF3D7_0208500 acyl carrier protein

Localization of GFP in the D10 ACPL-GFP strain was used to visualize the apicoplast. As expected, GFP localizes to a discrete structure in the parasite Widefield epifluorescence microscopy for apicoplast (ACPL-GFP) and nucleus (Hoescht 33342) comparing ring, trophozoite, and schizont.
