Sustained rhoptry docking and discharge requires Toxoplasma gondii intraconoidal microtubule-associated proteins
Abstract In Apicomplexa, rhoptry discharge is essential for invasion and involves an apical vesicle (AV) docking one or two rhoptries to a macromolecular secretory apparatus. Toxoplasma gondii is armed with 10–12 rhoptries and 5-6 microtubule-associated vesicles (MVs) presumably for iterative rhoptr...
