This study presents the crystal structure of Toxoplasma gondii GAC and proposes a multi-conformational model for its assembly in the glideosome.

This paper introduces iU-ExM, an iterative expansion microscopy technique that achieves single-molecule light microscopy resolution for organelles and tissues.

The paper identifies new components of the conoid in Apicomplexa and shows it regulates glideosome assembly and motility by controlling F-actin flux.

This study identifies the ATP2B-CDC50.4 complex as critical for phosphatidylserine flipping and microneme exocytosis in Toxoplasma gondii.

This study identifies novel kinetochore components in apicomplexan parasites and reveals plasticity in kinetochore composition and chromosome segregation across their lifecycle.

This study shows that pantothenate biosynthesis is critical for chronic Toxoplasma gondii infection, while CoA synthesis is essential for acute stages.

This paper shows that Toxoplasma gondii ERK7 depletion mimics AC9/AC10 depletion, causing apical complex disorganization and impairing parasite motility and invasion.

The paper isolates and characterizes human monoclonal antibodies against PvRBP2b that block its function in P. vivax invasion.

This study identifies AC9 and AC10 as essential alveolin network proteins required for SPMT assembly and conoid anchoring in Toxoplasma gondii, with loss of these proteins leading to conoidless mature parasites.

This paper shows that Toxoplasma gondii microneme proteins MIC1 and MIC4 bind TLR2 and TLR4 N-glycans to activate innate immune responses and regulate infection outcomes.

This study performs transcriptome analysis of Plasmodium berghei exo-erythrocytic stages using RNA-seq, revealing stage-specific gene expression and metabolic differences.
