Protein Trafficking to Apical Organelles of Malaria Parasites – Building an Invasion Machine

29 Nov 2007

Abstract excerpt

Malaria is caused by four species of apicomplexan protozoa belonging to the genus Plasmodium. These parasites possess a specialized collection of secretory organelles called rhoptries, micronemes and dense granules (DGs) that in part facilitate invasion of host cells. The mechanism by which the parasite traffics proteins to these organelles as well as regulates their secretion has important implications for...
