Rac Regulates <named-content content-type="genus-species">Giardia lamblia</named-content> Encystation by Coordinating Cyst Wall Protein Trafficking and Secretion

ABSTRACT Encystation of the common intestinal parasite Giardia lamblia involves the production, trafficking, and secretion of cyst wall material (CWM). However, the molecular mechanism responsible for the regulation of these sequential processes remains elusive. Here, we examined the role of GlRac,...
