Identification of native RAP-1 proteins on Babesia sp. BQ1 (Lintan) parasites using immunofluorescence analysis. Babesia sp. BQ1 (Lintan)-infected red blood cells were stained with rabbit pre-immune serum (control) and anti-RAP-1a61-1/CT antibodies. RBCs were stained with PKH26 (shown in red). An anti-RAP-1a61-1 antibody (green) reacted with native RAP-1a on merozoites. Nuclei were counterstained with DAPI (blue). Merged images are shown to the right. Arrowheads indicate the merozoites. Scale-bars: 7.5 μm
