From: The Leishmania amazonensis TRF (TTAGGG repeat-binding factor) homologue binds and co-localizes with telomeres

Figure 3

LaTRF partially co-localizes with L. amazonensis telomeres. LaTRF (red), using anti-LaTRF serum, was combined with FISH (green) using a PNA-telomere probe specific for TTAGGG repeats. DAPI (blue) was used to stain DNA in the nucleus (N) and in the kinetoplast (K). Images were organized in panels p1-p4 showing the co-localization patterns in merged (a): telomeres and LaTRF, and in merged (b): DAPI, telomeres and LaTRF. Merged images were done using NIS elements software (v. Br 2.30).
