Apicortin, a Constituent of Apicomplexan Conoid/Apical Complex and Its Tentative Role in Pathogen—Host Interaction
In 2009, apicortin was identified in silico as a characteristic protein of apicomplexans that also occurs in the placozoa, <i>Trichoplax adhaerens</i>. Since then, it has been found that apicortin also occurs in free-living cousins of apicomplexans (chromerids) and in flagellated fungi....
