<i>Toxoplasma</i> TgATG2 works with TgATG9 and TgProp1 to drive autophagic flux for parasite extracellular survival and persistence

2026-07-20

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Chronic infection by Toxoplasma gondii depends on long-term survival of bradyzoites within tissue cysts, a parasite stage highly resistant to current therapies and a major barrier to eradication. Autophagy has emerged as critical pathway for bradyzoite persistence, yet the core machinery driving autophagosome formation in T. gondii remains poorly defined. Here, we identify TGME49_304630 as TgA...
