Toxoplasma gondii exploits the host ESCRT machinery for parasite uptake of host cytosolic proteins.

Toxoplasma gondii exploits the host ESCRT machinery for parasite uptake of host cytosolic proteins.

Toxoplasma gondii is a master manipulator capable of effectively siphoning the resources from the host cell for its intracellular subsistence. However, the molecular underpinnings of how the parasite gains resources from its host remain largely unknown. Residing within a non-fusogenic parasitophorou...
