Apicomplexan F-actin is required for efficient nuclear entry during host cell invasion
M. Del Rosario, J. Periz, G. Pavlou…·M. Meissner
This study shows that F-actin is essential for nuclear passage during host cell invasion by apicomplexan parasites, stabilizing the junction and facilitating nuclear movement.

Formin-2 drives intracellular polymerisation of actin filaments enabling correct segregation of apicoplasts in Plasmodium falciparum and Toxoplasma gondii.
J. F. Stortz, M. Singer, J. M. Wilkes…·S. Das
This study shows Formin-2 is essential for F-actin nucleation and apicoplast segregation in apicomplexan parasites.
