TAF12 | Subunit (61/68 kDa) of TFIID and SAGA complexes; involved in RNA polymerase II transcription initiation and in chromatin modification, similar to histone H2A; overexpression of the human ortholog, TAF12, an oncogene involved in the formation of choroid plexus carcinomas, results in dosage chromosomal instability (dCIN) in a human cell line similar to the dCIN observed in yeast overexpressors.

LAS17 | Proline-rich protein LAS17; Actin assembly factor; C-terminal WCA domain activates Arp2/3 complex-mediated nucleation of branched actin filaments, polyproline domain nucleates actin filaments independent of Arp2/3; mutants are defective in endocytosis, bud site selection, cytokinesis; human homolog WAS (Wiskott-Aldrich Syndrome) implicated in severe immunodeficiency; human WAS complements yeast null mutant, but only in presence of WIPF1, which mediates localization of WAS to cortical patches.
