A GFP-actin reporter line to explore microfilament dynamics across the malaria parasite lifecycle.
Malaria parasite motility relies on an internal parasite actomyosin motor that, when linked to the host cell substrate, propels motile zoites forward. Despite their key role in this process, attempts to visualize actin microfilaments (F-actin) during motility and under native microscopy conditions h...
