Imaging data (from Malaria Metabolic Pathways)

1. Anti-PfSOD1 antibodies were used at 1:250. PfSOD1 was visualised using a rhodamine-coupled secondary antibody at 1:300. Nucleic acids were stained with DAPI. PfSOD1 appears to be a cytosolic protein2. Parasites were transfected and analysed by fluorescence microscopy. The first 273 nucleotides of the PfSOD2 ORF result in targeting of GFP into the parasites’ mitochondrion as shown by co-localisation of GFP and Mitotracker CMX Ros.
