background: severe and fatal complications of toxoplasmosis urge development of effective vaccines against the disease. the current study was performed to evalu­ate cocktail dna vaccine containing plasmids encoding gra5, sag1, and rop2 genes of toxoplasma gondii in balb/c mice in tarbiat modares university in 2012. methods: the plasmids containing complete gra5, sag1, and rop2 genes were mass e...

Asexual development in Toxoplasma gondii is a vital aspect of the parasite's life cycle, allowing transmission and avoidance of the host immune response. Differentiation of rapidly dividing tachyzoites into slowly growing, encysted bradyzoites involves significant changes in both physiology and morphology. We generated microarrays of approximately 4,400 Toxoplasma cDNAs, representing a minimum ...
