Conformational change of the Plasmodium TRAP I domain is essential for sporozoite migration and transmission of malaria

F. Frischknecht, F. Braumann, D. Klug, J. Kehrer, C. Lu, T. A. Springer

This study shows that conformational changes in the Plasmodium TRAP I-domain are essential for sporozoite gliding, salivary gland entry, and malaria transmission.

Malaria transmission relies on concavin-mediated maintenance of Plasmodium sporozoite cell shape

J. Kehrer, P. Formaglio, J. M. Muthinja, S. Weber, D. Baltissen, C. Lance, J. Ripp, J. Grech, M. Meissner, C. Funaya, R. Amino, F. Frischknecht

This study identifies concavin as a protein essential for maintaining Plasmodium sporozoite shape during mosquito transmission and skin migration, with its absence leading to shape defects and reduced transmission efficiency.

Malaria parasites differentially sense environmental elasticity during transmission

J. Ripp, J. Kehrer, X. Smyrnakou, N. Tisch, C. Ruiz de Almodovar, F. Frischknecht

This study investigates how malaria parasites adapt their motility to different environmental elasticities during transmission stages.

APEX-based proximity labeling in Plasmodium identifies a membrane protein with dual functions during mosquito infection

J. Kehrer, D. Ricken, L. Strauss, E. Pietsch, J. M. Heinze, F. Frischknecht

The paper uses APEX2-mediated proximity labeling to identify novel proteins in Plasmodium ookinetes, uncovering a membrane protein with dual roles in gamete egress and ookinete migration.
