Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To construct a Toxoplasma gondii mutant for stably expressing green fluorescent protein (GFP), and establish method to determine the rate of mutant-infected HeLa cells. METHODS: Freshly lysed-out tachyzoites of T. gondii RH strain were transfected with plasmid ptubP30-GFP/sag-CAT. Stable transformants were selected with chloramphenicol and limited dilution. The expression of GFP in mutant tachyzoite...
