The natural function of the malaria parasite’s chloroquine resistance transporter

Plasmodium falciparum chloroquine resistance transporter (PfCRT) mediates multidrug resistance, but its natural function remains unclear. Here, Shafik et al. show that PfCRT transports host-derived peptides of 4-11 residues but not other ions or metabolites, and that drug-resistance-conferring PfCRT...
