Abstract:
Toxoplasmosis is a systematic protozoan disease caused by a tiny parasite Toxoplasma gondii. The infection can be dangerous for pregnant woman and people with weak immune systems. The secreted protein named TgPDCD5 (Programmed cell death protein 5 from Toxoplasma gondii) plays an important role in apoptosis-inducing effect on host cells. Here, we report the 1H, 13C, and 15N resonance assignments of TgPDCD5. This work provides the ground for further structural elucidate and biophysical investigation about protein function.
