Structural Characterization of the Bradyzoite Surface Antigen (BSR4) from Toxoplasma gondii, a Unique Addition to the Surface Antigen Glycoprotein 1-related Superfamily

21 Jan 2009

Abstract excerpt

Toxoplasma gondii is an obligate intracellular protozoan parasite that infects nearly one-third of the human population. The success of T. gondii is based on its complex life cycle; a lytic tachyzoite form disseminates infection, whereas an encysted bradyzoite form establishes a latent, chronic infection. Persistence and transmissibility is central to the survival of the parasite and is, in part, mediated by a...
