Localization of the major Plasmodium falciparum glycoprotein on the surface of mature intraerythrocytic trophozoites and schizonts.

Abstract:

:The subcellular location of the major malarial glycoprotein in erythrocytes infected with schizonts of Plasmodium falciparum has been studied by two methods. In the first, glycoproteins were labelled with [3H]glucosamine or [3H]isoleucine during in vitro culture. Trypsin treatment of intact infected erythrocytes caused no major qualitative or quantitative changes in [3H]glucosamine labelled glycoproteins or [3H]isoleucine labelled proteins separated by sodium dodecylsulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. However, in the presence of Triton X-100 the labelled glycoproteins and proteins were completely cleaved by trypsin. In the second method, two monoclonal antibodies which specifically immunoprecipitate the major 195 kDa glycoprotein failed to react on indirect immunofluorescence with intact non-fixed schizont-infected erythrocytes, but reacted strongly with saponin released schizonts indicating specificity for the surface of mature intracellular parasites. Immunoelectronmicroscopy using ferritin-conjugated secondary antibody confirmed the location of the epitope(s) recognized by these monoclonals on the surface of intracellular parasites. Ferritin particles were not associated with knob-bearing erythrocyte membranes. The results indicate that only a small proportion or none of the 195 kDa glycoprotein is on the surface of the infected erythrocyte and that the largest proportion is expressed on the surface of mature intraerythrocytic parasites.
