This study identifies the SUN1-ALLAN complex as critical for coordinating nuclear envelope remodeling and bipartite MTOC segregation during rapid mitosis in Plasmodium male gametogenesis.

This paper identifies MED6-189, a potent antimalarial compound that disrupts apicoplast function and vesicular trafficking in P. falciparum, showing efficacy against drug-resistant strains and demonstrating a unique mechanism of action.

This study shows PfMORC regulates chromatin structure and gene repression in Plasmodium falciparum, essential for parasite survival and a potential target for antimalarial drugs.
