PF3D7_1344800 aspartate carbamoyltransferase

Fluorescent microscopy imaging of P. falciparum transfected with GFP-labelled PfATC shows distinct localization of PfATC. GFP-labelling experiments in vivo showed distinct localization of PfATC compared with the ER, supporting the hypothesis of the apicomplexian nature of the enzyme.
