Dissecting apicoplast functions through continuous cultivation of Toxoplasma gondii devoid of the organelle

Abstract The apicoplast, a relic plastid organelle derived from secondary endosymbiosis, is crucial for many medically relevant Apicomplexa. While it no longer performs photosynthesis, the organelle retains several essential metabolic pathways. In this study, we examine the four primary metabolic pa...
