Fig. 4. TbRAB11 migrates coordinately with the basal body during mitosis. PCF
parasites were treated for microscopy and stained with mouse anti-basal body
(BB4) followed by an anti-mouse FITC conjugate (green), rabbit anti-TbRAB11
followed by an anti-rabbit Cy3 conjugate (red) and with DAPI for DNA (blue).
For each image the basal body stain is shown to the left, the central figure
corresponds to TbRAB11 and the right image is the merge. (A-C) Cells prior to
entering mitosis with one kinetoplast and one nucleus. (D-F) Cells with one
nucleus and an elongate duplicating kinetoplast and basal body. (G-I) Cells in
which the kinetoplast and basal body have both duplicated while there is still
a single nucleus.
