C-Mannosylation of Toxoplasma gondii proteins promotes attachment to host cells and parasite virulence
<p><em>C-</em>Mannosylation is a common modification of thrombospondin type 1 repeats present in metazoans and recently identified also in apicomplexan parasites. This glycosylation is mediated by enzymes of the DPY19 family that transfer α-mannoses to tryptophan residues...
