SUMMARYThe invasive blood stage of malaria parasites, merozoites, are complex entities specialized for the capture and entry of red blood cells. Their potential for vaccination and other anti-malaria strategies have attracted much research attention

The first gene characterizing the clag (cytoadherence linked asexual gene) family of Plasmodium falciparum was identified on chromosome 9. The protein product (Clag9) was implicated in cytoadhesion, the binding of infected erythrocytes to host endoth

Apical membrane antigen 1 (AMA-1) of Plasmodium merozoites is established as a candidate molecule for inclusion in a human malaria vaccine and is strongly conserved in the genus. We have investigated its function in merozoite invasion by incubating P

The malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum is a complex eukaryote parasite with a dynamic pattern of genomic expression, enabling it to exploit a series of different habitats in human and mosquito hosts. In the human bloodstream, the parasite grows a

Myosins are motor proteins which, through interaction with filamentous actin, create movement. Multiple myosins have been identified in many of the apicomplexans, however, little is known regarding provenance over the life cycle or biological functio

We have studied the occurrence, stage specificity and cellular location of key molecules associated with microtubules in Plasmodium falciparum merozoites. Antibodies to gamma tubulin, conventional kinesin and cytoplasmic dynein were used to determine

Prior to the separation of merozoites from the Plasmodium falciparum schizont, various stage-specific organelles are synthesized and assembled within each merozoite bud. The apical ends of the merozoites are initiated close to the ends of endomitotic

SUMMARYF-actin was detected in asexual-stagePlasmodium falciparumparasites by fluorescence microscopy of blood films stained with fluorescent phalloidin derivatives. F-actin was present at all stages of development and appeared diffusely distributed

The biochemical, ultrastructural and experimental data concerning the organization and biological roles of the merozoite cytoskeleton are briefly reviewed. Actin is known to be expressed in the asexual erythrocytic stages, and has also been demonstra

This paper describes the development of early locomotor responses to mechanical stimulation in the Australian lungfish Neoceralodus and compares them with structural changes in the spinal cord. Initial movements occur spontaneously prior to innervati
