Δcarp mutants have a growth phenotype in vitro and in vivo. Δcarp mutants have a growth phenotype in vitro and in vivo. (A) Scheme showing the strategy used for creating Δcarp mutants. The endogenous gene was replaced with a chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (CAT) cassette via double homologous recombination. DS, downstream. (B) PCR amplification of genomic DNA extracted from parental, Δcarp, and Δcarp-cm clones after gene replacement showing the amplification of a 3.2-kb product corresponding to the TgCA_RP gene in the parental strain and a 2.1-kb product in the Δcarp mutant corresponding to the CAT cassette. Both bands are amplified in Δcarp-cm. Primers upstream (A, i) and downstream (A, ii) of the CA_RP gene were used for amplification. (C) Immunoblot assay of tachyzoite lysates with anti-TgCA_RP, showing the absence of TgCA_RP expression in the Δcarp mutant. Complementation of Δcarp mutants with a plasmid containing the TgCA_RP locus (Δcarp-cm), including the endogenous promoter, restored expression. (D) Representative plaque assay showing reduced plaque size formed by Δcarp mutant tachyzoites compared to parental (Δku80) and Δcarp-cm parasites (n = 3). (E) Quantification of parasite plaques showing smaller average area of Δcarp plaques. Student’s t test, *, P < 0.05; **, P < 0.005; ***; P < 0.0001 (means ± standard errors of the means, n = 3). (F) Plaquing efficiency assays showing that Δcarp parasites have a reduced invasion phenotype exacerbated by 1 h of extracellular stress in DMEM-HG medium. Student’s t test, *, P < 0.05; **, P < 0.005; ***, P < 0.0001 (means ± standard errors of the means, n = 3). (G) Red-green invasion assays showing reduced invasion by Δcarp tachyzoites. The “Invaded” bars show tachyzoites that attached and then successfully invaded, while the “Attached” bars show parasites that attached but failed to invade. Student’s t test, ***, P < 0.0001 (means ± standard errors of the means, n = 3). (H) Five outbred mice were inoculated intravenously with PBS or 50 parental (Δku80), Δcarp, or Δcarp-cm tachyzoites. Mouse cohorts inoculated with Δcarp mutants have increased survival compared to those inoculated with parental or Δcarp-cm. Surviving mice were protected against a challenge with 1,000 RH tachyzoites 50 days postinoculation (p.i.). The survival curve shows the combined results from 3 trials with 5 mice each (total of 15 mice per group). Nathan M. Chasen et al. mSphere 2017; doi:10.1128/mSphere.00027-17
