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) | ||||
YOR387C | VEL1-related protein YOR387C; Putative protein of unknown function; regulated by the metal-responsive Aft1p transcription factor; highly inducible in zinc-depleted conditions; localizes to the soluble fraction; SWAT-GFP and mCherry fusion proteins localize to the endoplasmic reticulum and vacuole respectively; YOR387C has a paralog, VEL1, that arose from a single-locus duplication.
