When more sugar is better—a GPI side chain modification results in a less virulent phenotype during a protozoan infection
ABSTRACT The assembly and function of side chain modifications of glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) units (anchors or free forms) are poorly defined. In a recent study, two enzymes, PIGJ and PIGE, of the protozoan parasite Toxoplasma gondii were identified and shown to be involved in the assembly o...
