The MIT team came up with a way to vibrate the cantilever in many different modes simultaneously,
while studying the way in which the parasites Toxoplasma gondii, which causes toxoplasmosis, and Plasmodium, which causes malaria, access vital nutrients from their host cells.
he says. o they have had to evolve ways to get around their own barriers, to gain access to these nutrients. revious research has shown that the vacuoles are selectively permeable to small molecules,
Similar research into how the related Plasmodium pathogen performs this trick had identified a so-called rotein export complexthat transports encoded proteins from the parasite into its host red blood cell,
and so we went back to look at this longstanding phenomenon of nutrient transport, Gold says. When they added dyes to the host cell,
suggesting that this small-molecule transport function had been restored. ll of this came together to strongly suggest that this protein that is involved in protein export in Plasmodium may also have an additional function in small-molecule transport,
