PF3D7_0905100 nucleoporin NUP221, putative

The protein encoded by the gene MAL13.P1.122 localize to the far nuclear periphery. MAL13P1.122 is a SET-domain protein (Histone-lysine N-methyltransferase), which localizes to the nuclear periphery surrounding the DAPI stained portion within the same region of CenPA (histone H3) and the histone mark H3K9m3. Co-localization studies by immunofluorescence. Nup100 (PFI0250c) and CenPA (histone H3 PF13_0185) are used as markers of the nuclear periphery.
