mSphere of Influence: From pixels to parasite insight—cryo-EM is rewiring apicomplexan cell biology
Li-av Segev Zarko studies the nanomachines that apicomplexan parasites deploy to break into host cells. In this mSphere of Influence article, she reflects on how breakthrough cryo-electron microscopy studies published between 2018 and 2021 reshaped her view of what the ever-advancing field of structural biology can reveal about molecular and cellular parasitology.
