Sfbmt coimmunoprecipitates pho and phol, but not Ino80 or other polycomb group proteins (Ph, Pc, Scm or Su(z)12). Sfbmt and pho are part of the Pho-repressive complex (PhoRC).

Source was embryonic nuclear extract of wild-type fly line; bait produced from endogenous gene; prey produced from endogenous gene.

Source was cell extract of baculovirus-infected Sf9 cell line; bait produced from transfected construct; prey produced from transfected construct.

phl and Sfmbt form a stable complex.
