    Temporal and thermal profiling of the Toxoplasma proteome implicates parasite Protein Phosphatase 1 in the regulation of Ca2+-responsive pathways

    Alice L Herneisen, Zhu-Hong Li ... Sebastian Lourido
    Time-resolved phosphoproteomics and thermal proteome profiling reveal the Ca2+-responsive proteome of the model apicomplexan Taxoplasma gondii, identifying PP1 as a Ca2+-responsive enzyme that regulates Ca2+ uptake to promote parasite motility.

    A Plasmodium falciparum MORC protein complex modulates epigenetic control of gene expression through interaction with heterochromatin

    Maneesh Kumar Singh, Victoria Ann Bonnell ... Celia RS Garcia
    Multi-omic analyses reveal that the chromatin-associated microrchidia protein, MORC (PF3D7_1468100), at the blood stage of the human malaria parasite, Plasmodium falciparum, interacts with a range of nuclear proteins.

    The Plasmodium falciparum rhoptry protein RhopH3 plays essential roles in host cell invasion and nutrient uptake

    Emma S Sherling, Ellen Knuepfer ... Christiaan van Ooij
    The rhoptry protein RhopH3 is crucial for the invasion and growth of the malaria parasite and disruption of it provides insight into the binding of the parasite to the host red blood cell and into the formation of new import pathways.
