The paper identifies a conserved microneme protein complex, CLAMP-SPATR-CLIP, essential for rhoptry discharge in Toxoplasma gondii.
This paper directly measures pH changes in the parasitophorous vacuole during Toxoplasma gondii egress and identifies formate-nitrite transporters as contributors to vacuolar acidification.

This study identifies Toxolysin 4 (TLN4) as a metalloproteinase necessary for efficient Toxoplasma gondii egress from host cells.

This study shows that the Toxoplasma gondii chloroquine resistance transporter (TgCRT) is essential for maintaining the digestive vacuole and bradyzoite viability, suggesting it as a potential target for treating chronic Toxoplasma infection.

This study identifies the structural basis of TgPLP1 membrane interaction and its role in parasite egress by showing a hydrophobic loop insertion into the membrane is essential for cytolytic activity.
