Extrachromosomal DNA in the Apicomplexa. [PDF]
Microbiology and molecular biology reviews : MMBR, 1997 Malaria and related apicomplexan parasites have two highly conserved organellar genomes: one is of plastid (pl) origin, and the other is mitochondrial (mt). The organization of both organellar DNA molecules from the human malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum has been determined, and they have been shown to be tightly packed with genes.

NAD(P) transhydrogenase isoform distribution provides insight into apicomplexan evolution
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2023 Membrane-located NAD(P) transhydrogenase (NTH) catalyses reversible hydride ion transfer between NAD(H) and NADP(H), simultaneously translocating a proton across the membrane. The enzyme is structurally conserved across prokaryotes and eukaryotes.

Paving the Way: Contributions of Big Data to Apicomplexan and Kinetoplastid Research
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2022 In the age of big data an important question is how to ensure we make the most out of the resources we generate. In this review, we discuss the major methods used in Apicomplexan and Kinetoplastid research to produce big datasets and advance our ...
