Mutant/mutation
The mutant expresses a GFP-tagged version of PTEX88.

Protein (function)
Plasmodium parasites remodel their vertebrate host cells by translocating hundreds of proteins across an encasing membrane into the host cell cytosol via a putative export machinery termed PTEX (Plasmodium Translocon of EXported protein). HSP101 (PbANKA_094120), PTEX150 (PbANKA_100850), EXP2 (PbANKA_133430), PTEX88 (PbANKA_094130) and TRX2 (PbANKA_135800) have been identified as members of the PTEX complex.

Phenotype
PTEX88::gfp expression in asexual blood stages. See RMgm-950 for a description of the location of PTEX88 in blood stages.
