UME6 | Transcriptional regulatory protein UME6; Rpd3L histone deacetylase complex subunit; key transcriptional regulator of early meiotic genes; involved in chromatin remodeling and transcriptional repression via DNA looping; binds URS1 upstream regulatory sequence, represses transcription by recruiting conserved histone deacetylase Rpd3p (through co-repressor Sin3p) and chromatin-remodeling factor Isw2p; couples metabolic responses to nutritional cues with initiation and progression of meiosis, forms compl.

CDC40 | Pre-mRNA-processing factor 17; Pre-mRNA splicing factor; important for catalytic step II of pre-mRNA splicing and plays a role in cell cycle progression, particularly at the G1/S phase transition; required for DNA synthesis during mitosis and meiosis; has WD repeats; thermosensitivity of the cdc40 null mutant is functionally complemented by a chimeric construct containing the N-terminal 156 amino acids of yeast Cdc40p fused to the C-terminal two thirds (297 amino acids) of human CDC40.
