Function

[ARF1_PLAFA] GTP-binding protein involved in protein trafficking; may modulate vesicle budding and uncoating within the Golgi apparatus (By similarity).

Publication Abstract from PubMed

Vesicular trafficking may play a crucial role in the pathogenesis and survival of the malaria parasite. ADP-ribosylation factors (ARFs) are among the major components of vesicular trafficking pathways in eukaryotes. The crystal structure of ARF1 GTPase from Plasmodium falciparum has been determined in the GDP-bound conformation at 2.5 A resolution and is compared with the structures of mammalian ARF1s.
