Identification of Toxoplasma gondii cAMP dependent protein kinase and its role in the tachyzoite growth.

Identification of Toxoplasma gondii cAMP dependent protein kinase and its role in the tachyzoite growth.

cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) has been implicated in the asexual stage of the Toxoplasma gondii life cycle through assaying the effect of a PKA-specific inhibitor on its growth rate. Since inhibition of the host cell PKA cannot be ruled out, a more precise evaluation of the role of PKA, as wel...
