Dual apical methyltransferases orchestrate motility initiation in apicomplexan parasites

Apicomplexan parasites such as Toxoplasma gondii initiate motility through rapid, spatially confined cytoskeletal activation at their apical end. While calcium-, lipid-, and kinase-based signalling pathways have been partially elucidated, how these cues are translated into mechanical force remains unclear. Here, we unc...
