In structural, functional, and evolutionary terms, galactoglycerolipids are signature lipids of chloroplasts. Their presence in nongreen plastids has been demonstrated in angiosperms and diatoms. Thus, galactoglycerolipids are considered as a landmark of green and nongreen plastids, deriving from either a primary or secondary endosymbiosis. The discovery of a plastid in Plasmodium falciparum, the...
Protozoan parasites of the phylum Apicomplexa include pathogens such as Plasmodium, Toxoplasma and Cryptosporidium. They have been shown to contain a vestigial nonphotosynthetic plastid, the apicoplast, which might have arisen by secondary endosymbiosis. Little is known about the function of the apicoplast but the parasites exhibit delayed cell death when their apicoplast is impaired. The discovery...
