I'll second the use of a bathroom paint if you're going to use interior
latex. I can't remember exactly which one I used a couple of years ago,
but I remember that I was looking to balance as little VOC as possible
with as much anti-mold/fungal quality as possible, and that it wasn't
really necessary to make much (if any) of a tradeoff on these
attributes. In the 2-ish years since doing that paint job, I haven't yet
seen a spot of mold or mildew on the interior paint, and haven't had any
problems with adhesion.
