Secretory Organelles in Apicomplexa

摘要: Apicomplexa interactions with their host are exquisitely dependent on unique secretory organelles that exocytose contents during gliding motility, attachment, and cell invasion. Recent developments boosted by molecular genetics high throughput methods have unraveled a number of biological processes allowed better understanding the role these in biology. The major contribution microneme proteins to cooperation rhoptry neck moving junction invasion, played bulb high-jacking basis new paradigms underline characteristics intracellular parasitism developed Apicomplexa.
