Figure 4. Ultrastructural detection of PfRab5b in P. falciparum-infected RBC.

Figure 4

Immuno-electron microscopy of schizonts (A) and a large trophozoite (B) of P. falciparum labelled with specific anti-PfRab5B antibodies, revealing the presence of gold particles both on the food vacuole (FV) and the parasite plasma membrane (PPM, white arrows) in trophozoites and exclusively on parasite plasma membrane for late stages. P, parasite; r, rhoptry. Scale bars, 150 nm.
