Structures of parasite calreticulins provide insights into their flexibility and dual carbohydrate/peptide-binding properties

Calreticulin (CRT) is a multifaceted protein, initially discovered as an endoplasmic reticulum (ER) chaperone protein, that is essential in calcium metabolism. Various implications in cancer, early development and immunology have been discovered more recently for CRT, as well as its role as a domina...
