Localization of putative mitochondrial import proteins in T. gondii. A, B, D, F, H, J, L, and N, target proteins are labeled in green, and in all cases they co-localize with a mitochondrial marker (either RFP fused to the mitochondrial matrix-targeting leader sequence of TgHsp60 or anti-Tom40 antibodies; red). Scale bars, 2 μm. C, E, G, I, K, and M, Western blottings of each protein are shown to the right of each panel. For the TgTom40 Western blotting, protein extracts from wild-type (WT) and the HA-tagged TgTom40 strain were probed with anti-TgTom40 antibodies. Our transfection experiments did not produce tagged TgPam18 in sufficient quantity to detect by Western blotting. O, schematic depicting the putative composition of the TOM, SAM, TIM23, PAM, and TIM22 complexes in T. gondii. Proteins localized in this study are depicted in light green, and proteins identified bioinformatically are depicted in dark green, and notable proteins without homologues in T. gondii are depicted in gray. OMM, outer mitochondrial membrane; IMM, inner mitochondrial membrane.
