Apicomplexan

Origin, targeting, and function of the apicomplexan plastid. ❋ Carl Zimmer (2009)

The thrombospondin-related protein family of apicomplexan parasites: The gears of the cell invasion machinery. ❋ Carl Zimmer (2009)

A plastid of probably green algal origin in apicomplexan parasites. ❋ Carl Zimmer (2009)

Apparently what is going on is that this particular apicomplexan assembles its cilia in the cytoplasm, and therefore has ditched the elaborate IFT complex that would otherwise be needed to transport building materials out to the far-removed end of the cilium. ❋ Unknown (2007)

Little is known about how apicomplexan parasites have evolved to infect different host species and cell types. ❋ Unknown (2010)

Oh, I almost forgot the best part: Which apicomplexan critter is it that builds cilia despite Behe's declaration that "a functioning cilium requires a working IFT"? ❋ Unknown (2009)

Herein, biochemical findings demonstrated the presence of carotenoid biosynthesis in the intraerythrocytic stages of the apicomplexan parasite P. falciparum. ❋ Unknown (2009)

It is possible that this enzyme represents an unique feature of the tissue cyst forming apicomplexan parasites. tyrosine hydroxylase has two domains. ❋ Unknown (2009)
