Additional remarks genetic modification | The construct was based on pL0017 (Malaria Research and Reference Reagent Resource Center-MR4, as part of the BEI Resources Repository, MRA-786), which facilitates constitutive expression of GFP under the eef1αa promoter in P. berghei. Integration takes place by single cross-over homologous recombination into the c-ssu or d-ssu-RNA locus.
PbcGFP-Sec61bβ parasites were generated by amplifying the cDNA of PbSec61bβ (PBANKA_070900) using the primers: 5’-TAT TCT AGA ATG AAT GCT GCC CCA GTA ATC-3’ and 5’-GCG TCT AGA TTA AAT TTT ACT AAT AAT ATG CAG AAT AAC-3’ (restriction sites underlined). Using the XbaI restriction site, the resulting PbSec61b fragment was cloned into a modified version of the pL0017 vector to generate the pcGFP-PbSec61bβ plasmid. The stop codon of gfp in pL0017 was deleted to allow integration downstream of gfp, resulting in the N-terminal fusion protein GFP-PbSec61bβ. To generate PbcsfGFP-Sec61bβ, the sfgfp sequence of psfGFP-Caveolin-C-10 (Addgene) was amplified using primers 5’-GGA TCC ATG GTG AGC AAG GGC GAG-3’ and 5’-TCT AGA CTT GTA CAG CTC GTC CAT GCC-3’. The gfp of pcGFP-PbSec61bβ was exchanged with sfgfp using BamHI and XbaI restriction sites to generate pcsfGFP-PbSec61bβ. |
