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) | ||||
YMR181C | Uncharacterized protein YMR181C; Protein of unknown function; mRNA transcribed as part of a bicistronic transcript with a predicted transcriptional repressor RGM1/YMR182C; mRNA is destroyed by nonsense-mediated decay (NMD); not an essential gene; YMR181C has a paralog, YPL229W, that arose from the whole genome duplication.
