Imaging data (from Malaria Metabolic Pathways)

Different PfRabs have different sub-cellular distributions in schizont-infected erythrocytes. Panel (A) shows control rabbit pre-immune serum. Panel (B) shows a multinucleated schizont decorated with anti-PfRab1A antibodies giving a perinuclear staining. Panels (C) and (D) (phase contrast) show the pattern obtained with the anti-PfRab11A antibodies. Clearly, PfRab1A and PfRab11A display different distributions. Panel (E) shows the pattern obtained with anti-Pf39 (ERC) antibodies specific for the endoplasmic reticulum. Panel (F) shows a double-labelling with anti-PfRab1A (green) and Pf39 (red) antibodies, where colocalization stains yellow. Panel (G) shows a double-labelling with anti-PfRab11A (green) and anti-Pf39 (red) and no co-localization is observed. Panel (H) shows anti-PfRab6 (green) and anti-Pf39 (red), where co-localization stains yellow.Quevillon E, Spielmann T, Brahimi K, Chattopadhyay D, Yeramian E, Langsley G.

GFP-PfRab1A fluorescence is found as discrete loci in living cells. A. GFP fluorescence is observed as discrete loci termed PfRab1Abodies in trophozoite and schizont stage parasites expressing GFP-PfRab1A. B. GFP-PfRab18 fluorescence is diffuse and closely associated with the nuclei. C-terminal HA-tagged PfRab1A is distributed equally throughout the parasite cytoplasm.Morse D, Webster W, Kalanon M, Langsley G, McFadden GI.

GFP-PfRab1A fluorescence in late schizonts is associated with rhoptry markers. Rhoptry markers Rap1 and Ron4 are found in trophozoites and schizonts as discrete foci that colocalize with GFP-PfRab1A fluorescence in late schizonts, but not in earlier phases of parasite development.Morse D, Webster W, Kalanon M, Langsley G, McFadden GI.

GFP-PfRab1A fluorescence does not co-localize with ER/Golgi, dense granules or microneme markers. GFP-PfRab1A fluorescence is distinct from the localization of markers for the apicoplast (ACP), the ER (Bip), the Golgi (ERD2 and GRASP), as well as from staining of the ER/Golgi with Bodipy BFA. GFP-Rab1A fluorescence is also distinct from the localization of markers for dense granules (RESA) or micronemes (AMA1 and EBA175).Morse D, Webster W, Kalanon M, Langsley G, McFadden GI.
