PF3D7_0217500 Calcium-dependent protein kinases; CDPK1

Inhibition of PfCDPK1 has no effect on asexual parasite growth. Immunofluorescence using anti-HA and anti-CDPK1 antibodies confirms that CDPK1 T145G-HA (a gatekeeper mutant) localizes correctly to the plasma membrane of parasites. Scale bar is 1 μm.
