Additional remarks genetic modification | The standard pBAT vector was used to generate the gene deletion constructs. This vector contains: (i) a drug-selectable cassette, (ii) a high expressing GFP cassette, (iii) a C-terminal red fluorescent (mCherry) and triple epitope (3xMyc) tag, (iv) two extensive multiple cloning sites (see RMgmDB-757 for details of this vector). The 3' fragment of trx2 was amplified from gDNA using XhoI and KpnI to generate the intermediate construct pPTEX-IM.
A fragment of the carboxy-terminal coding region was amplified from gDNA and fused in frame to the mCherry-3xMyc tag in ptrx2-IM using SacII and HpaI. The carboxy-terminal coding sequences cloned into the tagging plasmids were verified by commercial Sanger sequencing. All vectors targeting the putative PTEX translocon components were linearized with AhdI and ApaLI before transfection into wild-type P. berghei strain ANKA parasites. |
