Facilitator QuestionsWhy is the plastid surrounded by four membranes, while the mitrochondrion is only surrounded by two?
As a graduate student you have identified a new gene whose protein product you believe is transported to the apicoplast. Describe at least two methods you might use to test this hypothesis.
When during the parasite cell cycle does apicoplast protein transport occur? How was this experimentally determined?
Outline the basic workflow that was used to computationally determine which nuclear-encoded apicomplexan genes might target to the plastid Return to main Teaching Tools page for David Roos >>
