Toxoplasma gondii CDPK1 (TgCDPK1) was found to be the target of the toxoplasmocidal compound 1NM-PP1. When TgCDPK1 was mutated at position 128 from glycine to methionine, resistance was gained. Inhibition of gliding motility without inhibition of micronemal secretion by 1NM-PP1 suggests a function for TgCDPK1 in gliding motility.
弓形虫钙依赖蛋白激酶1(TgCDPK1)被发现是抗弓形虫化合物1NM-PP1的作用靶点。当TgCDPK1第128位的甘氨酸突变为甲硫氨酸时,产生了抗性。1NM-PP1抑制滑行运动但不抑制微线体分泌,这表明TgCDPK1在滑行运动中发挥作用。
