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.

SSY1 | SPS-sensor component SSY1; Component of the SPS plasma membrane amino acid sensor system; senses external amino acid concentration and transmits intracellular signals that result in regulation of expression of amino acid permease genes; other members are Ssy1p, Ptr3p, and Ssy5p. (852 aa) |
