To probe the observed punctate localisation of AP-2μ further, its cellular distribution was examined with respect to a panel of representative organelle markers. However, the distribution of AP-2μ signal did not correlate well with that of the ER, Golgi complex, or the apicoplast during development or with the apical secretory organelles during schizogony.
