The plant-like protein phosphatase PPKL regulates parasite replication and morphology in Toxoplasma gondii

Abstract Background The protozoan parasite Toxoplasma gondii encodes dozens of phosphatases, among which a plant-like phosphatase absent from mammalian genomes named PPKL, which is involved in regulating brassinosteroid signaling in Arabidopsis, was identified in the genome. Among the Apicomplexa pa...
