Figure A shows a portion of spore sac without spores. Note the hall-desmosome plaques with cytokeratin analogues attached. Figure B shows the half-desmosome plaques with immunoperoxidase labeling for desmoplakin I; note that the cytokeratin an- alogues within the spore sac appear unstained.

Bar = urn. for cytokeratins or for the desmosomal constituent, des- moplakin. Figure 2B shows fluorescent antibody activity for cytokeratins in field of spore sacs viewed in Figure 2A with phase optics. Figure 2C shows an enlargement of a few fluorescent antibody-labeled Thelohania sp. spores. The hairy surface of fluorescence at the spore surface is attributed to the spore-bound IFs. Both desmoplakin and cytokeratin antibody activities were confined to the The- lohania sp. spore sacs throughout the different stagings in microsporidian development: thus, host muscle tissue domains were negative for cytokeratin and desmoplakin analogues. Ultrastructure of Thelohania sp. spore sacs showed an abundance ofcvtokeratin IFs attached to half-desmosome-.
