We describe the localization of the KMP-11 protein in the Trypanosoma rangeliparasite determined by immunoelectron microscopy using a monoclonal antibody generated against the Trypanosoma cruziKMP-11 protein. The data reported herein show that the T. rangeliKMP-11 protein is mainly accumulated in the parasite cytoplasm, the coat, the flagellum, and the flagellar pocket. The high degree of sequence homology between the KMP-11 proteins from both parasites suggests that the KMP-11 protein from T. rangeli, like that of T. cruzi, could also be associated with the parasite cytoskeleton.
