Abstract excerpt
The establishment of culture conditions suitable for inducing differentiation of Toxoplasma gondii tachyzoites into parasites resembling the latent bradyzoite form has opened this important developmental transition to experimental analysis. In order to develop a genetic marker suitable for positive and negative selection during parasite differentiation. the T. gondii HXGPRT gene was placed under control of 5'...
