In order to determine whether the increase in genomic copies and transcription of the mdr1 gene was accompanied by an increase in its product, we measured the relative amount of MDR1 protein in the different parasite clones, using quantitative Western blot analysis. | |||||||||||||||

|
Thus, the fold-increase of AS-ATNMF1 mdr1 mRNA transcripts was 2.6±0.17 and 3.4±0.22, relative to its single copy number progenitor AS-ATN and to AS-3CQ, respectively. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
In this context, we investigated by real time PCR whether the evolution of ATN + MF-resistance had selected parasites with increased mdr1 copy number or mRNA expression. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
Investigation of candidate genes revealed an mdr1 duplication in the resistant parasites and increased levels of mdr1 transcripts and protein. | |||||||||||||||
