PfSUMO immunofluorescence assays throughout the blood stage cycle.
A. Reactivity of anti-PfSUMO sera on wild-type 3D7 strain parasites.
B. Reactivity of anti-FLAG (tag) antibody on PfSUMO-FLAG-tagged parasites. Ring stage 10–14 h, trophozoite stage 26–30 h, schizont stage 40–46 h post invasion.
C. Comparison of IFA pattern obtained by anti-PfSUMO and anti-FLAG antibodies on PfSUMO-FLAG-tagged parasites (trophozoites). Size bar corresponds to 1 μm. Nuclear staining by DAPI in blue.
