Diffraction contrast in cryo-scanning transmission electron tomography reveals the boundary of hemozoin crystals in situ

D. Mullick, K. Rechav, L. Leiserowitz, R. Dzikowski, N. Regev-Rudzki, M. Elbaum

This study uses cryo-scanning transmission electron tomography to show hemozoin crystals in malaria parasites lack a surrounding lipid layer, providing insights into drug mechanisms.

An SR protein is essential for the recovery of malaria parasites from DNA damage and exposure to artemisinin

B. K. Singh, M. Goyal, K. Simantov, Y. Kaufman, S. Eshar, R. Dzikowski

This study identifies PfSR1 as essential for DNA damage recovery and artemisinin resistance in Plasmodium falciparum by interacting with DNA repair proteins and histone marks.

Phosphorylation of the canonical histone H2A marks foci of damaged DNA in malaria parasite

M. Goyal, A. Heinberg, V. Mitesser, S. Kandelis-Shalev, B. K. Singh, R. Dzikowski

This study shows that Plasmodium falciparum phosphorylates PfH2A in response to DNA damage, forming foci that mark damaged chromatin and enabling a direct DNA repair assay.
