Toxoplasma effector MAF1 mediates recruitment of host mitochondria and impacts the host response.
Recent information has revealed the functional diversity and importance of mitochondria in many cellular processes including orchestrating the innate immune response. Intriguingly, several infectious agents, such as Toxoplasma, Legionella, and Chlamydia, have been reported to grow within vacuoles su...
