A genome-wide loss-of-function screen identifies <i>Toxoplasma gondii</i> genes that determine fitness in interferon gamma-activated murine macrophages

Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Macrophages play an essential role in the early immune response against Toxoplasma and are the cell type preferentially infected by the parasite in vivo . Interferon gamma (IFNγ) elicits a variety of anti- Toxoplasma activities in macrophages. Using a genome-wide CRISPR screen we identified ∼130 Toxoplasma genes that determine parasite fitness in naїve macrophages and ∼466 genes that determi...
