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.

REX3 | RNA exonuclease; required for maturation of the RNA component of RNase MRP; functions redundantly with Rnh70p and Rex2p in processing of U5 snRNA and RNase P RNA; member of RNase D family of exonucleases; Belongs to the REXO1/REXO3 family. (404 aa) |
