total mouse splenocytes using red blood cell lysis buffer (Sigma,
cat. R7757). Mouse lymphocytes were cultured in RPMI 1640 (cat. 11875;
Gibco) supplemented with 10% (v/v) inactivated FCS (Gibco), 0.0002%
β-mercaptoethanol final (Sigma, cat. M7522), penicillin 50 units
per liter–streptomycin 50 mg per liter (Sigma, cat. P4333),
1 mM sodium pyruvate final (Gibco, cat. 11360) nonessential amino
acids (Life Technologies, cat. 11140) and 2 mM glutamine (US Biological,
cat. G7120). HEK 293T cells were cultured in Dulbecco’s Modified
Eagle’s Medium supplemented with 10% (v/v) inactivated FBS
(Gibco). Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain W303 was
cultured in YPD medium. Toxoplasma gondii (RH strain)
tachyzoites were grown in human foreskin fibroblasts (HFF) cultured
in Dulbecco’s Modified Eagles Medium (DMEM; Invitrogen) supplemented
with 10% tetracycline-free FBS (HyClone), 2 mM glutamine, 10 mM HEPES
(pH 7.5), and 20 μg/mL gentamicin.
