Apicomplexan parasites, such as Toxoplasma gondii, have specific adaptations that enable
invasion and exit from the host cell. Owing to the phylogenetic distance between …

10.7554/eLife.49030.001 In addition to its role in erythrocyte invasion, Plasmodium
falciparum actin is implicated in endocytosis, cytokinesis and inheritance of the chloroplast-like …

The obligate intracellular parasites Toxoplasma gondii and Plasmodium spp. invade host
cells by injecting a protein complex into the membrane of the targeted cell that bridges the two …

The cytoskeletal protein actin is highly abundant and conserved in eukaryotic cells. It occurs
in two different states‐ the globular (G‐actin) form, which can polymerise into the …

Apicomplexan parasites, such as Toxoplasma gondii, possess unique organelles,
cytoskeletal structures, signalling cascades, replicate by internal budding within a specialised …

Pathogenic obligate-intracellular apicomplexan parasites possess an essential chloroplast-like
organelle called the apicoplast that undergoes division and segregation during …
