Abstract excerpt

Several rhoptry proteins (ROPs) have been confirmed to be critical virulence factors of Toxoplasma gondii strains from North America and Europe. The two active kinases ROP17 and ROP18, and pseudokinase ROP5 were thought to be the key determinants of parasites' virulence in laboratory mice. Given the genetic diversity of Toxoplasma strains from different geographical regions, the virulence determinants in other...
