Starch Branching Enzyme 1 Is Important for Amylopectin Synthesis and Cyst Reactivation in Toxoplasma gondii.
Toxoplasma gondii (T. gondii) bradyzoites facilitate chronic infections that evade host immune response. Furthermore, reactivation in immunocompromised individuals causes severe toxoplasmosis. The presence of abundant granules containing the branched starch amylopectin is major characteristic of bradyzoites that is nearly absent from tachyzoites that drive acute disease. T. gondii genome encodes to potential Starch branching enzyme 1 (SBE1) that creates branching during amylopectin biosynthesis. However, the physiological function of the amylopectin in T. gondii remains unclear.
