Crystalloids: Fascinating Parasite Organelles Essential for Malaria Transmission.

Johannes T Dessens1, Annie Z Tremp2, Sadia Saeed2.   

Abstract

Crystalloids are malaria parasite organelles exclusive to the ookinete and young oocyst life stages that infect the mosquito. The organelles have key roles in sporozoite development and infectivity but the way this is facilitated on a molecular level remains poorly understood. Recent discoveries have shed new light on these processes.
