Figure 4. Generating HA-tagged knockdown lines of novel PV proteins.

Figure 4

(a) Schematic of endogenous PV1, PV2 and EXP3 proteins tagged with HA and glmS. Sizes of fusion proteins are indicated. All proteins contain predicted signal peptides (SPs) and EXP3 contains a predicted transmembrane (TM) domain. Numbers refer to amino acids. (b) Western blots were probed with anti-HA antisera to confirm PV1-HA, PV2-HA and EXP3-HA fusion protein expression in transfectants. Expected full-length fusion proteins are marked by arrows. Molecular masses are shown in kDa. (c) Immunofluorescence analysis of PV1-HA-, PV2-HA- and EXP3-HA-infected RBCs labelled with antisera recognizing HA (green) and PV1 (red). DIC and DAPI (blue) are shown on the left. Scale bars, 5 μm.
