Structural and Functional Insights into the Microtubule Organizing Centers of <i>Toxoplasma gondii</i> and <i>Plasmodium</i> spp.

Microtubule organizing centers (MTOCs) perform critical cellular tasks by nucleating, stabilizing, and anchoring microtubule’s minus ends. These capacities impact tremendously a wide array of cellular functions ranging from ascribing cell shape to orchestrating cell division and generating motile st...
