PF3D7_1323500 PEXEL protease plasmepsin V

Identifying PfSPC25 as an interacting partner of PMV. Immunofluorescence of 3D7 parasites at the ring, trophozoite and schizont stages using anti-PfSPC25 (green) and anti-PMV (red) antibodies. Brightfield (BF) images are also shown. The parasite nuclei are shown stained with DAPI (blue). Examples of apparent colocalization between PfSPC25 and PMV (indicated with asterisks) have been magnified and are shown in the insets. N = 3 biologically independent samples used. Scale bar, 5 μm.
