Localization of TgIF2K-A and TgIF2K-B.
A, IFA were
performed on a transgenic parasite clone expressing GFP fused to the ER
retention signal, HDEL (15).
Intracellular (IC) or extracellular (EC) GFP-HDEL parasites
were co-stained with affinity-purified anti-TgIF2K-A (green),
anti-GFP (red), and 4′,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole
(DAPI; blue). B, IFA performed on wild-type
parasites using anti-TgIF2K-B (green) and
4′,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (red) shows diffuse staining of
parasite cytoplasm in intracellular (IC) and extracellular
(EC) parasites.
