TvCMD1 is associated with the basal body in T. vaginalis. Immunofluorescence analysis shows anterior localized TvCMD1 (green fluorescence) in iron-rich (a) and iron-deficient (b) cultured cells. TvCMD1 co-localized with basal body marker centrin (red fluorescence) in iron-rich (c) and iron-deficient (d) cells. The nucleus was stained with DAPI (blue fluorescence). The result indicated that TvCMD1 (green color) was colocalized with the basal body (red color) in T. vaginalis. Scale-bars: 5 μm
