Parent parasite used to introduce the genetic modification
Rodent Malaria ParasiteP. berghei
Parent strain/lineP. berghei ANKA
Name parent line/clone P. berghei ANKA 676m1cl1 (RMgm-29)
Other information parent line676m1cl1 (RMgm-29) is a reference ANKA mutant line which expresses GFP-luciferase under control of a constitutive promoter. This reference line does not contain a drug-selectable marker (PubMed: PMID: 16242190).

Principal name2135cl1
Alternative namePbΔmdr2

Is the mutant parasite cloned after genetic modificationYes

Phenotype
Asexual blood stageNot different from wild type
Gametocyte/GameteNot different from wild type
Fertilization and ookineteNot different from wild type
OocystReduced numbers of (mature) oocysts
SporozoiteReduced numbers of (mature) oocysts.
Stronly reduced numbers (>10 times) of salivary gland sporozoites
Liver stageStrongly reduced numbers (>10 times) of salivary gland sporozoites. However, sporozoites show normal infectivity to mice. Intravenous injection of 10.000 mutant sporozoites resulted in blood infections in mice (n=3) with a prepatent period (5-6 days) that is comparable to the prepatent period of wild type parasites.
Additional remarks phenotype

Mutant/mutation
The mutant lacks expression of MDR2 and expresses the fusion gene of GFP and Luciferase under the control of the constitutive eef1a promoter

Protein (function)
In different Plasmodium parasites 14-16 ABC-transporter genes have been identified (16 in P. falciparum, 14 in P. berghei). Based on phylogenetic analysis of the conserved nucleotide-binding domains, seven of these are recognized as members of the B family of ABC transporters (both in P. falciparum and in P. berghei). This includes MDR2.

Phenotype
Normal development of blood stages. Reduced numbers of (mature) oocysts. Strongly reduced numbers (>10 times) of salivary gland sporozoites. However, sporozoites show normal infectivity to mice. Intravenous injection of 10.000 mutant sporozoites resulted in blood infections in mice (n=3) with a prepatent period (5-6 days) that is comparable to the prepatent period of wild type parasites.

Additional information
Northern analysis and RNAseq analyses indicate that mdr2 is transcribed in blood stages. Northern analysis of blood stages of PbΔmdr2 demonstrated the absence of (correctly sized) mdr2 transcripts.
