| PPG1 | Serine/threonine-protein phosphatase PP2A-like PPG1; Putative serine/threonine protein phosphatase; putative phosphatase of the type 2A-like phosphatase family, required for glycogen accumulation; interacts with Tap42p, which binds to and regulates other protein phosphatases. (368 aa) | ||||
| RED1 | Protein component of the synaptonemal complex axial elements; involved in chromosome segregation during the first meiotic division; critical for coupling checkpoint signaling to SC formation; promotes interhomolog recombination by phosphorylating Hop1p; also interacts with Mec3p and Ddc1p. (827 aa) | ||||
| RPD3 | Histone deacetylase, component of both the Rpd3S and Rpd3L complexes; regulates transcription, silencing, autophagy and other processes by influencing chromatin remodeling; forms at least two different complexes which have distinct functions and members; Rpd3(L) recruitment to the subtelomeric region is regulated by interaction with the arginine methyltransferase, Hmt1p. (433 aa) | ||||
| BNI1 | Protein BNI1; Formin; polarisome component; nucleates the formation of linear actin filaments, involved in cell processes such as budding and mitotic spindle orientation which require the formation of polarized actin cables; recruited to the division site in a Glc7p/Ref2p dependent manner following release of Bnr1p; functionally redundant with BNR1. (1953 aa) | ||||
| DSL1 | Peripheral membrane protein needed for Golgi-to-ER retrograde traffic; mediates Sey1p-independent homotypic ER fusion; forms Dsl1 tethering complex with Sec39p and Tip20p that forms a stable complex with ER SNAREs Sec20p, Ufe1p and Use1p and is functionally conserved from yeast to mammalian cells; component of the ER target site that interacts with coatomer; interacts with different subunits of COPI vesicle coat; interacts with Cin5p; homolog of fly and human ZW10 gene. (754 aa) | ||||
| SLA2 | Adaptor protein that links actin to clathrin and endocytosis; involved in membrane cytoskeleton assembly and cell polarization; present in the actin cortical patch of the emerging bud tip; dimer in vivo; Belongs to the SLA2 family. (968 aa) | ||||
