Phenotype
Asexual blood stage	Expression in schizonts. Epitope-tagged PBANKA_0939100 was immunoprecipitated from the lysates of P. berghei schizonts, and MS identification of co-purifying proteins confirmed interaction with different proteins.
Gametocyte/Gamete	Not tested
Fertilization and ookinete	Not tested
Oocyst	Not tested
Sporozoite	Not tested
Liver stage	Not tested
Additional remarks phenotype	Mutant/mutation The mutant expresses a C-terminal 3xHA-tagged version of PBANKA_0939100 Protein (function) Phenotype The protein was identified in a large-scale protein interaction network analysis. To validate the proposed complex of ApiAP2 proteins, epitope-tagged PBANKA_0939100 was immunoprecipitated from the lysates of P. berghei schizonts, and MS identification of co-purifying proteins confirmed interaction with different proteins. From the Abstract: We validate selected interactions, assigning functions in chromatin regulation to previously unannotated proteins and suggesting a role for an EELM2 domain-containing protein and a putative microrchidia protein as mechanistic links between AP2-domain transcription factors and epigenetic regulation.
