A patatin‐like protein protects Toxoplasma gondii from degradation in activated macrophages
6 Dec 2006
Abstract excerpt
The apicomplexan parasite Toxoplasma gondii is able to suppress nitric oxide production in activated macrophages. A screen of over 6000 T. gondii insertional mutants identified two clones, which were consistently unable to suppress nitric oxide production from activated macrophages. One strain, called 89B7, grew at the same rate as wild-type parasites in naïve macrophages, but unlike wild type, the mutant was...
