The ESCRT-III machinery participates in the production of extracellular vesicles and protein export during Plasmodium falciparum infection.

The ESCRT-III machinery participates in the production of extracellular vesicles and protein export during Plasmodium falciparum infection.

Infection with Plasmodium falciparum enhances extracellular vesicle (EV) production in parasitized red blood cells (pRBCs), an important mechanism for parasite-to-parasite communication during the asexual intraerythrocytic life cycle.
