Uncharacterized protein IRC4; Protein of unknown function; null mutant displays increased levels of spontaneous Rad52p foci; green fluorescent protein (GFP)-fusion protein localizes to the cytoplasm and nucleus.

Increased recombination centers protein 19; Protein of unknown function; YLL033W is not an essential gene but mutant is defective in spore formation; null mutant displays increased levels of spontaneous Rad52p foci.

Increased recombination centers protein 13; Dubious open reading frame; unlikely to encode a functional protein, based on available experimental and comparative sequence data; null mutant displays increased levels of spontaneous Rad52 foci.

Putative cystathionine beta-lyase; Beta-lyase involved in the production of thiols; null mutant displays increased levels of spontaneous Rad52p foci; expression induced by nitrogen limitation in a GLN3, GAT1-dependent manner and by copper levels in a Mac1-dependent manner.

Protein AHC1; Subunit of the Ada histone acetyltransferase complex; required for structural integrity of the complex; Ahc2p and Ahc1p are unique to the ADA complex and not shared with the related SAGA and SLIK complexes; Ahc2p may tether Ahc1p to the complex.

Uncharacterized ATP-dependent helicase IRC5; Putative ATPase containing the DEAD/H helicase-related sequence motif; null mutant displays increased levels of spontaneous Rad52p foci; SWAT-GFP and mCherry fusion proteins localize to the nucleus.

Benzil reductase ((S)-benzoin forming) IRC24; Putative benzil reductase;(GFP)-fusion protein localizes to the cytoplasm and is induced by the DNA-damaging agent MMS; sequence similarity with short-chain dehydrogenase/reductases; null mutant has increased spontaneous Rad52p foci; Belongs to the short-chain dehydrogenases/reductases (SDR) family.

Small heat shock protein (sHSP) with chaperone activity; forms barrel-shaped oligomers that suppress unfolded protein aggregation; involved in cytoskeleton reorganization after heat shock; protein abundance increases and forms cytoplasmic foci in response to DNA replication stress.

Dual specificity protein kinase YAK1; Serine-threonine protein kinase; component of a glucose-sensing system that inhibits growth in response to glucose availability; upon nutrient deprivation Yak1p phosphorylates Pop2p to regulate mRNA deadenylation, the co-repressor Crf1p to inhibit transcription of ribosomal genes, and the stress-responsive transcription factors Hsf1p and Msn2p; nuclear localization negatively regulated by the Ras/PKA signaling pathway in the presence of glucose.
