Comparative Analysis of Apicoplast-Targeted Protein Extension Lengths in Apicomplexan Parasites
In general, the mechanism of protein translocation through the apicoplast membrane requires a specific extension of a functionally important region of the apicoplast-targeted proteins. The corresponding signal peptides were detected in many apicomplexans but not in the majority of apicoplast-targete...
