PF3D7_1108700 heat shock protein 40, type ii

PfPDI8 and PfPDI11 are redox-active ER proteins. A) PfJ2apt-PDI8glmS and PfJ2apt-PDI11glmS parasites were fixed and stained with DAPI (blue) and with antibodies against HA (green) and V5 (red). Ring (R), Trophozoite (T), and Schizont (S) stage parasites are shown. Z-stack Images were deconvoluted and shown as a single, maximum intensity projection. Scale bar represents 5 μm. The subcellular localizations of PfPDI8 and -11 were determined by IFA, and both proteins were found to co-localize with PfJ2 in the ER.
