To construct recombinant plasmid pSPPcGT which contains signal peptide peptidase gene of Plasmodium falciparum (PJSPP) and GFP, and transfect into P. falciparum (3D7 strain) to obtain mutant parasites which can express PJSPP-GFP.Plasmodium falciparum(3D7 strain) genomic DNA was extracted from cultured malaria parasites. The C-terminal region of PJSPP, an 883 bp gene fragment was amplified by PCR, and then cloned into pPM2GT vector to get recombinant vector pSPPcGT. The recombinant vectors were identified by PCR, double restriction enzyme digestion and DNA sequencing. pSPPcGT vector was transfected into malaria parasites. The positive clones were selected by adding inhibitor of Plasmodium falciparum dihydrofolate reductase WR99210 to the culture medium. The pSPP-GFP-transfected parasites were fixed with methanol, stained with DAPI, and observed under immunofluorescence microscope. The PJSPP-GFP expression in P. falciparum was identified by SDS-PAGE and Western blotting.The C-terminal region of PJSPP was amplified from P.falciparum (3D7 strain) genomic DNA by PCR with the length of 883 bp. The constructed recombinant vectors were identified by PCR screening, double restriction enzyme digestion and DNA sequencing. The pSPPcGT vector was transfected into P. falciparum and the positive clones were selected by WR99210. GFP fluorescence was observed in transfected parasites by immunofluorescence microscopy, and mainly located in the cytoplasm. The PJSPP-GFP expression in malaria parasites was confirmed by Western blotting with a relative molecular mass of Mr 64,000.Recombinant vector PJSPP-GFP is constructed and transfected into P. falciparum to obtain P. falciparum mutant clone which can express PfSPP-GFP. |
