TRIM21 is critical for survival of Toxoplasma gondii infection and localises to GBP-positive parasite vacuoles

Abstract Interferon gamma (IFNγ) is the major proinflammatory cytokine conferring resistance to the intracellular vacuolar pathogen Toxoplasma gondii by inducing the destruction of the parasitophorous vacuole (PV). We previously identified TRIM21 as an IFNγ-driven E3 ubiquitin ligase mediating the d...
