Plasmodium berghei crystalloids contain multiple LCCL proteins

24 Nov 2009

Abstract excerpt

Malaria crystalloids are unique organelles of unknown function that are present only in the mosquito-specific ookinete and early oocyst stages of the parasite. Recently, crystalloid formation in Plasmodium berghei was linked to the parasite protein PbSR, a member of the Plasmodium LCCL protein family composed of six modular multidomain proteins involved in sporozoite development and infectivity. Here, we show by...
