Abstract
<jats:p> <jats:named-content content-type="genus-species">Toxoplasma gondii</jats:named-content> is a ubiquitous intracellular parasite of humans and animals that causes life-threatening disease in immunocompromised patients, fetal abnormalities when contracted during gestation, and recurrent eye lesions in some patients. Despite its health implications, about half of the <jats:italic>Toxoplasma</jats:italic> genome still lacks functional annotation. </jats:p>
