Dephospho‐CoA kinase, a nuclear‐encoded apicoplast protein, remains active and essential after Plasmodium falciparum apicoplast disruption
Malaria parasites contain an essential organelle called the apicoplast that houses metabolic pathways for fatty acid, heme, isoprenoid, and iron–sulfur cluster synthesis. Surprisingly, malaria parasites can survive without the apicoplast as long as the isoprenoid precursor isopentenyl pyrophosphate...
