Project description:ChIP-seq experiments were performed to profile PfH3.3 (PF3D7_0617900) in the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum. Sequencing of ChIP samples showed enrichment of PfH3.3 at GC-rich coding sequences and subtelomeric repetitive regions throughout the intraerythrocytic life cycle and additionally in intergenic regions during trophozoite stages. Also the promoter and the coding sequence of the active and poised var2CSA gene were marked (reference genome Plasmodium falciparum 3D7 from PlasmoDB version 6.1)
