Making Home Sweet and Sturdy: <italic toggle="yes">Toxoplasma gondii</italic> ppGalNAc-Ts Glycosylate in Hierarchical Order and Confer Cyst Wall Rigidity
ABSTRACT The protozoan intracellular parasite Toxoplasma gondii forms latent cysts in the central nervous system (CNS) and persists for the lifetime of the host. This cyst is cloaked with a glycosylated structure called the cyst wall. Previously, we demonstrated that a mucin-like glycoprotein, CST1,...
