Abstract

Interferon-γ (IFN-γ) is critical for defense against pathogens, but the molecules that mediate its antimicrobial responses are largely unknown. IGTP is the prototype for a family of IFN-γ-regulated genes that encode 48-kDa GTP-binding proteins that localize to the endoplasmic reticulum. We have generated IGTP-deficient mice and found that, despite normal immune cell development and normal clearance of Listeria monocytogenes and cytomegalovirus infections, the mice displayed a profound loss of host resistance to acute infections of the protozoan parasite Toxoplasma gondii. By contrast, IFN-γ receptor-deficient mice have increased susceptibility to all three pathogens. Thus, IGTP defines an IFN-γ-regulated pathway with a specialized role in antimicrobial resistance.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
