<i>Toxoplasma gondii</i> PROP1 is critical for autophagy and parasite viability during chronic infection

2024-10-02

Abstract excerpt

Macroautophagy is an important cellular process involving lysosomal degradation of cytoplasmic components, facilitated by autophagy-related proteins (ATGs). In the protozoan parasite Toxoplasma gondii , autophagy has been demonstrated to play a key role in adapting to stress and persistence of chronic infection. Despite limited knowledge about the core autophagy machinery in T. gondii , two PROPPIN family protei...
