Exploiting the apicoplast: apicoplast-targeting drugs and malaria vaccine development [PDF]
The apicoplast, a relic plastid found in most Apicomplexan parasites, is a notable drug target. Certain antibiotics elicit a delayed death phenotype by targeting this organelle. Here, we review apicoplast-targeting drugs and their targets, particularly those that cause delayed death, and highlight its potential uses in malaria vaccine development.

The evolution, metabolism and functions of the apicoplast [PDF]
The malaria parasite, Plasmodium falciparum , harbours a relict plastid known as the ‘apicoplast’. The discovery of the apicoplast ushered in an exciting new prospect for drug development against the parasite.
