Researchers have genetically dissected the way Apicomplexa divides and multiplies within its host cell. This approach should be broadly applicable, allowing unbiased genetic analysis of any part of ...

Apicomplexa are unicellular eukaryotic parasites that exhibit two types of secretory organelle at their apical pole and a membranous system that underlies their plasma membrane. Apicomplexa are ...

Researchers have identified a key enzyme for the synthesis of glycoconjugates (sugars linked to other molecules) in Plasmodium falciparum and other intracellular parasites belonging to the large ...
