Fig. 4From: Giardia intestinalis mitosomes undergo synchronized fission but not fusion and are constitutively associated with the endoplasmic reticulumThe single dynamin-related protein of G. intestinalis (GiDRP) is not involved in the division of mitosomes. a G. intestinalis cells expressing human influenza hemagglutinin (HA)-tagged K43E GlDRP were immunolabeled using anti-HA antibody (green), anti-GL50803_9296 antibody (red), and anti-CWP1 antibody (magenta). One layer of the whole Z-stack is shown. Scale bar, 2 μm. b G. intestinalis trophozoites were subjected to in vitro encystation and the number of formed cysts and the number of mitosomes within these cells were determined. For the latter, 50 encysting cells were used for the calculation. The error bars depict the standard deviationsBack to article page
