Deskripsi

The function of RNA-binding domain abundant in Apicomplexans (RAP) protein family members is largely unknown. Here, using high-throughput functional genomics, including metabolomics, Hollin et al. characterize two RAP proteins that are essential for Plasmodium falciparum survival and control mitochondrial rRNAs.
