Additional remarks genetic modification | In order to generate the transgenic SAS4-HA and SAS6-HA lines, library clones PbG02_A-10a01 and PbG03-39b05 from the PlasmoGEM repository (http://plasmogem.sanger.ac.uk/) were used to generate HA tagging vectors, respectively. Sequential recombineering and gateway steps were performed as previously described using RecUp and RecDown primers. Insertion of the GW cassette following gateway reaction was confirmed using primer pairs GW1 x QCR1 and GW2 x QCR2. Oligonucleotides used in this study are listed in Table S1. The modified library inserts were then released from the plasmid backbone using NotI. The HA targeting vectors were transfected into the 2.34 parasite line. |
