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. (978 aa) | ||||
FRM2 | Fatty acid repression mutant protein 2; Type II nitroreductase, using NADH as reductant; mutants are defective in fatty acid mediated repression of genes involved in fatty acid biosynthesis indicative of a role in lipid signaling; involved in the oxidative stress response; transcription induction by cadmium and selenite indicates a possible role in the metal stress response; expression induced in cells treated with the mycotoxin patulin.
