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.

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
