An intracellular membrane protein GEP1 regulates xanthurenic acid induced gametogenesis of malaria parasites
Mosquito-derived xanthurenic acid (XA) is a trigger for gametogenesis of Plasmodium parasites. Here the authors show that the putative amino acid transporter GEP1 is required for XA-stimulated gametogenesis in Plasmodium yoelii and that it interacts with guanylyl cyclase α (GCα), a cGMP synthesizing...
