Biosynthetic Pathways of Plastid-Derived Organelles as Potential Drug Targets Against Parasitic Apicomplexa

1 Jun 2003

Abstract excerpt

Apicomplexan parasites are a large phylum of unicellular and obligate intracellular organisms of great medical importance. They include the human pathogens Plasmodium spp., the causative agent of malaria, and Toxoplasma gondii, an opportunistic parasite of immunosuppressed individuals and a common cause of congenital disease, together affecting several hundred million people worldwide. The search for new and...
