Plasmodium P-type cyclin CYC3 modulates endomitotic growth during oocyst development in mosquitoes (2015)
Journal Article
Roques, M., Wall, R. J., Douglass, A. P., Ramaprasad, A., Ferguson, D. J. P., Kaindama, M. L., …Tewari, R. (2015). Plasmodium P-type cyclin CYC3 modulates endomitotic growth during oocyst development in mosquitoes. PLoS Pathogens, 11(11), Article e1005273. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.ppat.1005273

Cell-cycle progression and cell division in eukaryotes are governed in part by the cyclin family and their regulation of cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs). Cyclins are very well characterised in model systems such as yeast and human cells, but surprisi...

The Plasmodium Class XIV Myosin, MyoB, Has a Distinct Subcellular Location in Invasive and Motile Stages of the Malaria Parasite and an Unusual Light Chain (2015)
Journal Article
Yusuf, N. A., Green, J. L., Wall, R. J., Knuepfer, E., Moon, R. W., Schulte-Huxel, C., …Holder, A. A. (2015). The Plasmodium Class XIV Myosin, MyoB, Has a Distinct Subcellular Location in Invasive and Motile Stages of the Malaria Parasite and an Unusual Light Chain. Journal of Chemical Sciences, 290, 12147-12164. https://doi.org/10.1074/jbc.M115.637694

Myosin B (MyoB) is one of the two short class XIV myosins encoded in the Plasmodium genome. Class XIV myosins are characterized by a catalytic “head,” a modified “neck,” and the absence of a “tail” region. Myosin A (MyoA), the other class XIV myosin...
