SIR3 | Regulatory protein SIR3; Silencing protein; interacts with Sir2p, Sir4p, and histone H3/H4 tails to establish transcriptionally silent chromatin; required for spreading of silenced chromatin; recruited to chromatin through interaction with Rap1p; C-terminus assumes variant winged helix-turn-helix (wH) fold that mediates homodimerization, which is critical for holo-SIR complex loading; required for telomere hypercluster formation in quiescent yeast cells; has paralog ORC1 from whole genome duplication.

MTW1 | Kinetochore-associated protein MTW1; Essential component of the MIND kinetochore complex; joins kinetochore subunits contacting DNA to those contacting microtubules; critical to kinetochore assembly; complex consists of Mtw1p Including Nnf1p-Nsl1p-Dsn1p (MIND). (289 aa) |
