Toxoplasma gondii exploits UHRF1 and induces host cell cycle arrest at G2 to enable its proliferation
12 Mar 2008
Abstract excerpt
Toxoplasma gondii is an obligate intracellular parasite that causes severe disease in humans. It is able to infect all nucleated mammalian cells leading to lifelong persistence of the parasite in the host. Here, we studied the effect of T. gondii infection on host cell proliferation and explored the molecular mechanisms involved in host cell cycle progression. We found that T. gondii induced G1/S transition in...
