Essential function of alveolin Pf IMC1g in the Plasmodium falciparum asexual blood stage

15 Sept 2023

Abstract excerpt

ABSTRACT The cytoskeleton of Plasmodium parasites is essential for replication, motility, and infectivity. Plasmodium falciparum leverages a family of cytoskeletal proteins known as alveolins to meet these diverse needs. The functional role of individual alveolins in Plasmodium blood stages, however, remains unexplored. Here, we demonstrate that the alveolin Pf IMC1g (PF3D7_0525800) is essential for P. falciparum...
