The spatial proteome of the Plasmodium falciparum schizont illuminates the composition and evolutionary trajectories of its organelles Malaria is caused by apicomplexan parasites of the genus Plasmodium , with all malaria symptoms and pathology caused by parasite stages that develop within, or transit between, host erythrocytes. The ...

A huge thanks to our collaborators on this journey - @vflorelo.bsky.social, Alison Kemp, Lisa Breckels, Ludek Koreny, @nicolas3474.bsky.social, Konstantin Barylyuk, Anna Kuroshchenkova and the leadership of Kathryn Lilley, Julian Rayner and @rosswaller.bsky.social

The more we understand how these parasites are built, the better our chances of finding new ways to stop them. We hope this is a valuable resource to the malaria research community

New preprint! Really excited to share our spatial proteomic study on Plasmodium falciparum schizonts . We used hyperLOPIT to map thousands of proteins—from apical invasion organelles to the infected red blood cell surface.
