We report here the characterization of the first Pf60 gene. The 6.1 gene is constitutively expressed by all mature blood stages and codes for a protein located within the nucleus. It has a single copy, 7-exon, 5′ domain, separated by an internal stop codon from a 3′ domain that presents a high homology with var exon II. Double-site immunoassay and P. falciparum transient transfection using the reporter luciferase gene demonstrated translation through the internal ochre codon. The 6.1 N-terminal domain has no homology with any protein described to date. Sequence analysis identified a leucine zipper and a putative nuclear localization signal and showed a high probability for coiled coils. Evidence for N-terminal coiled coil-mediated protein interactions was obtained. This identifies the 6.1 protein as a novel nuclear protein. These data show that the Pf60 and var genes form a superfamily with a common 3′ domain, possibly involved in regulating homo- or heteromeric interactions.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

Published 2005Staff ViewISSN: 1550-7408Source: Blackwell Publishing Journal Backfiles 1879-2005Topics: BiologyNotes: Pf155/RESA (Ring Infected Erythrocyte Surface Antigen), is a Plasmodium falciparum protein discharged by the dense granules of merozoites during invasion and exported to the inner face of the erythrocyte membrane, where it interacts with spectrin in the young stages. Chromosome 1 subtelomeric deletion, eliminating amongst others the resa gene, may occur during adaptation of parasite isolates to in vitro culture. This is accompanied by erythrocyte membrane modifications of the red blood cell, such as increased adhesion and effect on membrane rigidity. It has been proposed that RESA was likely to contribute to these functional and rheological modifications. To assess this, we have constructed resa knock-out parasites in the FUP/CB strain. This results in negativating the erythrocyte membrane immunofluorescence of glutaraldehyde-fixed red blood cells (EMIF), indicating that RESA is critical for EMIF reactivity of hyperimmune human sera. Phenotypic and functional analysis of resa k.o. parasites indicated that loss of RESA expression neither affects membrane rigidity nor CD36 binding under flow conditions. Furthermore, infection of Saimiri sciureus monkeys showed that resa gene deletion does not account on its own for the greater adaptation and parasite virulence in this model.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

Published 2005Staff ViewISSN: 1550-7408Source: Blackwell Publishing Journal Backfiles 1879-2005Topics: BiologyNotes: In the past few years, genetic manipulation of Plasmodium falciparum has allowed functional studies of many parasite proteins. However, a careful interpretation of gene manipulation results is required, as chromosomal events may occur in vitro independently of the experimental modifications (gene invalidation, overexpression …), and because of the intrinsic mutagenic potential of genetic manipulation, or pleiotropic consequences related to the insertion of exogenous sequences. To ensure that mutant phenotypes arise from the planned mutations, it is necessary to obtain revertants re-expressing the wild-type gene. On this line, we have developed a positive/negative selection strategy allowing in a first step, gene targeting, then excision of the resistance marker. We converted the Toxoplasma gondii DHFR/TS into a tri-functional enzyme following fusion with the Herpes virus type I thymidine kinase (HSV-TK1). Positive selection corresponds to pyrimethamine resistant development, while negative selection acts in presence of the pro-drogue ganciclovir. We used this tool to study RESA, a dense granule protein that associates with spectrin following invasion. Resa gene invalidation was obtained using a targeting plasmid allowing expression of the fusion DHFR/TS/HSV-TK1, and molecular and phenotypic analyses of mutant parasites were performed. Next, wild-type resa gene expression was restored after excision of all the exogenous sequences following phosphorylation of ganciclovir by the HSV thymidine kinase into a toxic metabolite. Phenotypic studies of revertants confirm some functions attributed to RESA protein, and validate the positive/negative strategy in this reverse genetic approach, a useful tool for development of “hit and run” mutagenesis in P. falciparum.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -
