In the context of development, tissue homeostasis, immune surveillance, and pathological
conditions such as cancer metastasis and inflammation, migrating amoeboid cells …

Phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns) metabolism is indispensable in eukaryotes. Phosphoinositides
(PIs) are phosphorylated derivatives of PtdIns and consist of seven species generated by …

Trogocytosis is a mode of internalization of a part of a live cell by nibbling and is
mechanistically distinct from phagocytosis, which implies internalization of a whole cell or a …

Rab small GTPases regulate membrane traffic between distinct cellular compartments of all
eukaryotes in a tempo‐spatially specific fashion. Rab small GTPases are also involved in …

Cell motility is governed by a complex molecular machinery that converts physico-chemical
cues into whole-cell movement. Understanding the underlying biophysical mechanisms …

The protist parasite Entamoeba histolytica causes amoebiasis, a major public health
problem in developing countries and a major cause of morbidity and mortality. Invasive …

For the protist parasite Entamoeba histolytica, endocytic processes, such as phagocytosis,
are essential for its survival in the human gut. The actin cytoskeleton is involved in the …

The protozoan parasite Entamoeba histolytica is the microbial agent of amoebiasis–an
infection that is endemic worldwide and is associated with high morbidity and mortality rates …

The highly conserved proteins of the 14-3-3 family are universal adaptors known to regulate
an enormous range of cellular processes in eukaryotes. However, their biological functions …

The parasite Entamoeba histolytica is the etiological agent of amoebiasis, a major cause of
morbidity and mortality due to parasitic diseases in developing countries. Phagocytosis is an …
