CC -!- FUNCTION: Direct host-parasite interaction occurs at the cytoplasmic
CC faces of the parasitophorous vacuole membrane (PVM) and the host
CC endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane via GRA3 and host CAMLG
CC association. Direct insertion of GRA3 ER retrieval motif into the host
CC ER membrane contributes to the host ER recruitment to the PVM.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19127325}.
CC -!- SUBUNIT: Homodimer (Probable). Interacts (via N-terminus) with human
CC host CAMLG (via N-terminus). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16149193,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:19127325, ECO:0000305}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16149193,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:19127325}. Host endoplasmic reticulum
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16149193, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19127325}.
CC Parasitophorous vacuole membrane {ECO:0000255}; Multi-pass membrane
CC protein {ECO:0000255}. Note=Located in dense granules of tachyzoites.
CC Upon infection, secreted to the PVM. {ECO:0000255,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:16149193, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19127325}.
CC -!- DOMAIN: The KKXX motif functions as an ER retrieval signal that
CC rationalizes association with PVM and the host cell ER.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16149193}.
CC -!- SEQUENCE CAUTION:
CC Sequence=AAC13772.1; Type=Miscellaneous discrepancy; Note=Chimeric cDNA, matches the N-terminus.; Evidence={ECO:0000305};
CC Sequence=AAC13773.1; Type=Erroneous initiation; Note=Truncated N-terminus.; Evidence={ECO:0000305};
CC Sequence=AAC13773.1; Type=Miscellaneous discrepancy; Note=Chimeric cDNA, matches the N-terminus.; Evidence={ECO:0000305};
