  1. How do #apicomplexans reorganize their #PlasmaMembrane (PM) while replicating inside host cells? This study shows that #Toxoplasma recycles its PM via Rab5b- & MyoF-dependent #endocytosis, linking PM reservoir formation to membrane homeostasis via the micropore @PLOSBiology plos.io/46tDxny

  2. #Apicomplexans need specialized structures to invade host cells & replicate. @petersmback @GEWard14 @ToxInLA &co show that alveolin protein IMC6 is crucial for maintaining cellular morphology, invasion & successful replication in #Toxoplasma #PLOSBiology plos.io/3BgjxaE

  3. Diversity is key for understanding #Apicomplexans & #Dinoflagellates
