Malaria parasite cGMP-dependent protein kinase regulates blood stage merozoite secretory organelle discharge and egress.
The malaria parasite replicates within an intraerythrocytic parasitophorous vacuole (PV). Eventually, in a tightly regulated process called egress, proteins of the PV and intracellular merozoite surface are modified by an essential parasite serine protease called PfSUB1, whilst the enclosing PV and...
