https://www.selleckchem.com/products/AC-220.html Active host cell invasion by the obligate intracellular apicomplexan parasites relies on the formation of a moving junction, which connects parasite and host cell plasma membranes during entry. Invading Toxoplasma gondii tachyzoites secrete their rhoptry content and insert a complex of RON proteins on the cytoplasmic side of the host cell membrane providing an anchor to which the parasite tethers. Here we show that a rhoptry-resident kinase RON13 is a key virulence factor that plays a crucial role in host cell entry. Cryo-EM, kinase assays, phosphoproteomics and cellular analyses reveal that RON13 is a secretory pathway kinase of atypical structure that phosphorylates rhoptry proteins including the components of the RON complex. Ultimately, RON13 kinase activity controls host cell invasion by anchoring the moving junction at the parasite-host cell interface.The application of patient-derived xenografts (PDX) in drug screening and testing is a costly and time-consuming endeavor. While cell lines permit extensive mechanistic studies, many human breast cancer cell lines lack patient characteristics and clinical treatment information. Establishing cell lines that retain patient's genetic and drug response information would enable greater drug screening and mechanistic studies. Therefore, we utilized breast cancer PDX from the Mayo Breast Cancer Genome Guided Therapy Study (BEAUTY) to establish two immortalized, genomically unique breast cancer cell lines. Through extensive genetic and therapeutic testing, the cell lines were found to retain the same clinical subtype, major somatic alterations, and drug response phenotypes as their corresponding PDX and patient tumor. Our findings demonstrate PDX can be utilized to develop immortalized breast cancer cell lines and provide a valuable tool for understanding the molecular mechanism of drug resistance and exploring novel treatment strategies.Single-atom catalysts provide an ef
