This study identifies a two-membrane pathway in Toxoplasma gondii that imports host lactate and pyruvate to sustain mitochondrial function and virulence, revealing host monocarboxylates as critical fuels for parasite survival.

This study identifies a hypoxia-responsive coproporphyrinogen dehydrogenase-like protein in Toxoplasma gondii that exhibits enzymatic activity but does not affect intracellular growth under hypoxia.
