Immunofluorescence assays for the localization of enolase, aldolase and HSP-70 in P. falciparum asexual stages (ring, trophozoite and schizont). (A) P. falciparum infected red blood cells were treated with DAPI (blue), mouse anti rPfen antibody (green), rabbit anti-P. falciparum aldolase antibody (red). (B) Cells were treated with DAPI, rabbit rPfen antibody (red), and mouse anti Pf HSP-70 antibody (green). Overlay panels show the merged of the three images.Pal Bhowmick I, Kumar N, Sharma S, Coppens I, Jarori GK. Plasmodium falciparum enolase: stage-specific expression and sub-cellular localization.

IFA of merozoites stained with a mAb specific for pfGAPDH, pfAldolase and RAP-1. Row 1 demonstrates merozoites stained with anti-pfGAPDH mAb (green, column I), anti-pfAldolase mAb (red, column II) and the overlay of both images (column III). Row 2 shows merozoites stained with anti-pfGAPDH mAb (green, column I) and anti-RAP-1 mAb 5-2 (red, column II) and the overlay of both images (column III). pfAldolase and pfGAPDH were colocalized in the early stages of parasite development since both, the green and the red signals, were super-imposed resulting in orange signals. At 40 h post synchronization the green signal of the anti-pfGAPDH staining was largely confined to the periphery of the schizont, while the red signal of the anti-pfAldolase staining remained distributed equally throughout the schizont. pfGAPDH and pfAldolase were preferentially localized at opposite cell poles. pfGAPDH was preferentially co-localized with RAP-1 which is associated with the apical complex of the merozoites.Daubenberger CA, Tisdale EJ, Curcic M, Diaz D, Silvie O, Mazier D, Eling W, Bohrmann B, Matile H, Pluschke G.

Longitudinal intensity profiling localises actin and aldolase towards the rear of the invading merozoite’s tight junction. Single-slice images of example merozoites for the longitudinal intensity profiling of mRON4 (green) vs (left panel) rActin (rAct) (red) or (right panel) rAlodlase (rAldo) (red). Scale bars = 1 μm. Red boxes in DIC images indicate zoomed regions for middle and right panels. Arrows indicate the position of the RON4 labelled tight junctionRiglar DT, Whitehead L, Cowman AF, Rogers KL, Baum J.
