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) | ||||
PHM8 | Phosphate metabolism protein 8; Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) phosphatase, nucleotidase; principle and physiological nucleotidase working on GMP, UMP and CMP; involved in LPA hydrolysis in response to phosphate starvation and ribose salvage pathway; phosphatase activity is soluble and Mg2+ dependent; expression is induced by low phosphate levels and by inactivation of Pho85p; repressed by Gcn4p under normal conditions; PHM8 has a paralog, SDT1, that arose from the whole genome duplication.
