cze Abstract:
Photosynthetic organism Chromera velia was discovered recently. Thanks to the fact that it is harmless algae but close relative to apicomplexan parasites it could be used as a helpful-tool for basic research. Apicoplast serves as a target of some antimalarial agents, so my first task was to isolate pure fraction of plastid organelle. And next to apply antibiotic rifampicin at the same doses that are working in Plasmodium falciparum to see whether it would be possible to use C. velia as a model organism in first screening of new antimarial drugs.
