Screening and Identification of the Host Proteins Interacting with Toxoplasma gondii Rhoptry Protein ROP16
Toxoplasma gondii, as a zoonotic protozoan parasite, develops sophisticated strategies to manipulate hosts for efficient intracellular survival. After successful invasion, T. gondii injects many effector proteins into host cells for various purposes. TgROP16 (T. gondii rhoptry protein 16), which is secreted from rhoptries into host cells, can activate the host STAT (signal transducer and activa...
متن کاملCharacterization of the interaction between Toxoplasma gondii rhoptry neck protein 4 and host cellular β-tubulin
Toxoplasma rhoptry neck protein 4 (TgRON4) is a component of the moving junction macromolecular complex that plays a central role during invasion. TgRON4 is exposed on the cytosolic side of the host cell during invasion, but its molecular interactions remain unclear. Here, we identified host cellular β-tubulin as a binding partner of TgRON4, but not Plasmodium RON4. Coimmunoprecipitation studie...
متن کاملEvaluating the serological applications of Toxoplasma gondii rhoptry protein 1 (ROP1) antigen
Introduction: Toxoplasma gondii (T. gondii) is distributed worldwide and infects most species. The serious incidence and severe or fatal injury caused by T. gondii infection clearly indicates the necessity for the event of a vaccine. The current study goals were to evaluate serological applications of Toxoplasma gondiirhoptry protein 1 (ROP1) ...
متن کاملCloning rhoptry protein 1 (ROP1) gene of Toxoplasma gondii (RH) in expression vector
Toxoplasma gondii contain various immunogenic antigens. The most important Toxoplasma antigens are somatic and excreted/secreted antigens. Rhoptry proteins are known as excreted/secreted antigens. These antigens have been proposed as a vaccine candidate against toxoplasmosis. The main objective of the present work was cloning rhoptry protein1 (ROP1) Gene of Toxoplasma gondii (RH) in a cloning...
متن کاملToxoplasma gondii Rhoptry Kinase ROP16 Activates STAT3 and STAT6 Resulting in Cytokine Inhibition and Arginase-1-Dependent Growth Control
The ROP16 kinase of Toxoplasma gondii is injected into the host cell cytosol where it activates signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT)-3 and STAT6. Here, we generated a ROP16 deletion mutant on a Type I parasite strain background, as well as a control complementation mutant with restored ROP16 expression. We investigated the biological role of the ROP16 molecule during T. gondi...
