Proline dehydrogenase, a rate-limiting catabolic enzyme, affecting the growth and pathogenicity of Toxoplasma gondii tachyzoites by regulating the proline metabolism and mitochondrial function of the parasite

Abstract Background The pathogenicity of Toxoplasma gondii is closely associated with its intracellular lytic cycle in host cells. Currently, the mechanisms by which T. gondii completes the lytic cycle remain unclear. The proline metabolism has been reported to be crucial for intracellular growth of...
