We are excited to share our latest work: #toxoplasma #lipin channels the flux of host lipids between #lipid storage and membrane biogenesis for division, preventing #lipotoxicity. Superb work @sheena_dass @ParaFrap @Serenashun@IFCPAR all the team!

In @eLife: A novel SUN1-ALLAN complex coordinates segregation of the bipartite MTOC across the nuclear envelope during rapid closed mitosis in Plasmodium berghei https://t.co/IQwqJjFKqb. Out today. If you are at @biomalpar then happy to show the poster on it.

The SUN1-ALLAN complex serves as a nuclear envelope–spanning tether that coordinates the segregation of a bipartite microtubule organising center (MTOC) during the unusual mitosis of Plasmodium.

🚨New paper out! 🚨 The apicoplast is an essential plastid retaining many crucial metabolic pathways 🦠🏭 However, bypassing all of them makes the apicoplast dispensable! https://t.co/ELkGjzaE2Q

Glad to share this collaborative nice collaborative study we particitated to from @RitaTewari 's lab about the role of SUN1-ALLAN in nuclear envelope and MTOC organisations in Plasmodium #malaria.
Delighted to share our new study on a novel SUN1-ALLAN complex in Plasmodium MTOC and NE organization. Many thanks @Zeeshan_MF; @EelcoTromer ; @RyujiYanase; @TonyHolder2; Sarah; David F; Akancha; Igor; Cyrille; Robert; Declan. @KarineLeRoch1; Link: https://t.co/XCpS6Ih171

Our parasite genome databases are really gone! The lack of communication and scientific vision @NIH is hard to follow. Colossal mistake! @parasitesrule @BSPparasitology @theNASciences @ScienceMagazine @Nature @NIAIDNews

We show that TgACS3 is responsible for activating and channeling the constant flux of scavenged fatty acids towards parasite lipid storage #lipiddroplets,allowing mobilization of membrane building blocks for parasite division and survival especially under high host nutrient level
