Divergent Autophagy Pathways in Plasmodium: Mechanisms, Functions, and Therapeutic Potential
Autophagy is a highly conserved degradative and recycling pathway essential for maintaining cellular homeostasis. Although its molecular machinery is well characterized in yeast and mammalian systems, it is less studied in the early‐diverging apicomplexan parasite Plasmodium, the causative agent of malaria. Plasmodium...
