Toxoplasma gondii is an obligate intracellular parasite that chronically infects a third of
humans. It can cause life-threatening encephalitis in immune-compromised individuals. …

Type II Toxoplasma gondii KU80 knockouts (Δku80) deficient in nonhomologous end joining
were developed to delete the dominant pathway mediating random integration of targeting …

Toxoplasma gondii infects up to one third of the world's population. A key to the success of T.
gondii as a parasite is its ability to persist for the life of its host as bradyzoites within tissue …

The tissue cyst of Toxoplasma gondii , found in latent infection, serves a critical role in both
transmission and reactivation of this organism. Within infected cells, slowly replicating …

Microsporidia are opportunistic intracellular pathogens that can infect a wide variety of hosts
ranging from invertebrates to vertebrates. During invasion, the microsporidian polar tube …

In immunocompromised hosts, latent infection with Toxoplasma gondii can reactivate from
tissue cysts, leading to encephalitis. A characteristic of T. gondii bradyzoites in tissue cysts is …

The protozoan intracellular parasite Toxoplasma gondii forms latent cysts in the central
nervous system (CNS) and persists for the lifetime of the host. This cyst is cloaked with a …

Toxoplasma gondii is an obligate intracellular apicomplexan parasite that infects warm-blooded
vertebrates, including humans. Asexual reproduction in T. gondii allows it to switch …

The intracellular parasite Toxoplasma gondii adapts to diverse host cell environments within
a replicative compartment that is heavily decorated by secreted proteins. In an attempt to …

Our studies on novel cyst wall proteins serendipitously led us to the discovery that cyst wall
and vacuolar matrix protein MAG1, first identified a quarter of a century ago, functions as a …
