Toxoplasma gondii is a member of the apicomplexan phylum, a group of single‐celled eukaryotic parasites that cause significant human morbidity and mortality around the world. T. gondii harbors two organelles of endosymbiotic origin: a non‐photosynthetic plastid, known as the apicoplast, and a single mitochondrion derived from the ancient engulfment of an α‐proteobacterium. Due to excitement surrounding the novelty of the apicoplast, the T. gondii mitochondrion was, to a certain extent, overlooked for about two decades. However, recent work has illustrated that the mitochondrion is an essential hub of apicomplexan‐specific biology. Development of novel techniques, such as cryo‐electron microscopy, complexome profiling, and next‐generation sequencing have led to a renaissance in mitochondrial studies. This review will cover what is currently known about key features of the T. gondii mitochondrion, ranging from its genome to protein import machinery and biochemical pathways. Particular focus will be given to mitochondrial features that diverge significantly from the mammalian host, along with discussion of this important organelle as a drug target.
