A genetic screen identifies a protective type III interferon response to <i>Cryptosporidium</i> that requires TLR3 dependent recognition
2021-10-06
Abstract excerpt
Cryptosporidium is a leading cause of severe diarrhea and diarrheal-related death in children worldwide. As an obligate intracellular parasite, Cryptosporidium relies on intestinal epithelial cells to provide a niche for its growth and survival, but little is known about the contributions that the infected cell makes to this relationship. Here we conducted a genome wide CRISPR/Cas9 knockout screen to discover hos...
