IMC1b Is a Putative Membrane Skeleton Protein Involved in Cell Shape, Mechanical Strength, Motility, and Infectivity of Malaria Ookinetes
Membrane skeletons are cytoskeletal elements that have important roles in cell development, shape, and structural integrity. Malaria parasites encode a conserved family of putative membrane skeleton proteins related to articulins. One member, IMC1a, is expressed in sporozoites and localizes to the p...
