Biogenesis of the inner membrane complex is dependent on vesicular transport by the alveolate specific GTPase Rab11B.

Apicomplexan parasites belong to a recently recognised group of protozoa referred to as Alveolata. These protists contain membranous sacs (alveoli) beneath the plasma membrane, termed the Inner Membrane Complex (IMC) in the case of Apicomplexa. During parasite replication the IMC is formed de novo w...
