PF3D7_0917900 PfHsp70-2

Representative IFA of PfERC-M9 parasites showing that tagged PfERC localized to the ER as shown with colocalization with the ER chaperone BiP in all asexual stages of the parasite. Phase-contrast (DIC [differential interference contrast]), anti-BiP antibody (green), anti-HA antibody (red), DAPI (blue), and fluorescence merge images are shown from left to right. Images representing colocalization between PfERC and BiP (indicated by asterisks) have been magnified and are shown in the insets. Abbreviations: R, rings; T, trophozoites; S, schizonts. Bar, 5 mm. Immunofluorescence microscopy showed that PfERC colocalized with the ER marker, PfBiP
