Fig. 3From: γ-Carboxymuconolactone decarboxylase: a novel cell cycle-related basal body protein in the early branching eukaryote Trichomonas vaginalis 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 μmBack to article page
