PF3D7_0320800 ATP-dependent RNA helicase DDX6

Localization of PfDZ50 by immunofluorescence staining. The cells were fixed and immunostained. Panel (I) phase, panel (II) image of cell stained with DAPI (for nucleus staining), panel (III) immunofluorescently stained cell (green, PfDZ50) and panel (IV) super-imposed images. Panels a to e are late ring, early trophozoite, late trophozoite, early schizont and late schizont stages of the asexual development of P. falciparum 3D7 strain stained with immune IgG. PfDZ50 is expressed in all the asexual stages. It is concentrated mainly in the cytoplasmic region and shows a granular localization pattern.
