SET-domain proteins PF08_0012 and Histone-lysine N-methyltransferase PF13_0293 localize to the nuclear periphery marked by CenPA. (A) Localization of PF08_0012 reveals a clustered localization pattern present throughout the nuclear periphery of the cell. PF08_0012 is HA-tagged at the C-terminus and detected with anti-HA antibodies. (B) Live imaging of PF13_0293 shows localization to a distinct area in the nuclear periphery. Co-localization studies by immunofluorescence are shown. Nup100 (PFI0250c) and CenPA (histone H3 PF13_0185) are used as markers of the nuclear periphery.
