Origin and arrangement of actin filaments for gliding motility in apicomplexan parasites revealed by cryo-electron tomography

The phylum Apicomplexa comprises important eukaryotic parasites that invade host tissues and cells using a unique mechanism of gliding motility. Gliding is powered by actomyosin motors that translocate host-attached surface adhesins along the parasite cell body. Actin filaments (F-actin) generated b...
