FG-nucleoporin component of central core of the nuclear pore complex; contributes directly to nucleocytoplasmic transport and maintenance of the nuclear pore complex (NPC) permeability barrier and is involved in gene tethering at the nuclear periphery; relocalizes to the cytosol in response to hypoxia; both NUP1 and NUP60 are homologous to human NUP153.

ATP-dependent DNA helicase II subunit 1; Subunit of the telomeric Ku complex (Yku70p-Yku80p); involved in telomere length maintenance, structure and telomere position effect; required for localization of telomerase ribonucleoprotein to nucleus via interaction with the TLC1 guide RNA; relocates to sites of double-strand cleavage to promote nonhomologous end joining during DSB repair.

Ribosomal 60S subunit protein L5; nascent Rpl5p is bound by specific chaperone Syo1p during translation; homologous to mammalian ribosomal protein L5 and bacterial L18; binds 5S rRNA and is required for 60S subunit assembly; Belongs to the universal ribosomal protein uL18 family.

Myosin-like protein associated with the nuclear envelope; nuclear basket protein that connects the nuclear pore complex with the nuclear interior; involved in the Tel1p pathway that controls telomere length; MLP2 has a paralog, MLP1, that arose from the whole genome duplication.

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.

Ribosomal 60S subunit protein L25; primary rRNA-binding ribosomal protein component of large ribosomal subunit; binds to 25S rRNA via a conserved C-terminal motif; homologous to mammalian ribosomal protein L23A and bacterial L23; Belongs to the universal ribosomal protein uL23 family.

Spindle pole body assembly component MPS3; Nuclear envelope protein; required for SPB insertion, SPB duplication, Kar5p localization near the SPB and nuclear fusion; interacts with Mps2p to tether half-bridge to core SPB; N-terminal acetylation by Eco1p regulates its role in nuclear organization; localizes to the SPB half bridge and telomeres during meiosis; required with Ndj1p and Csm4p for meiotic bouquet formation and telomere-led rapid prophase movement; member of the SUN protein family (Sad1-UNC-84 homology).

Myosin-like protein associated with the nuclear envelope; nuclear basket protein that connects the nuclear pore complex with the nuclear interior; involved with Tel1p in telomere length control; involved with Pml1p and Pml39p in nuclear retention of unspliced mRNAs; MLP1 has a paralog, MLP2, that arose from the whole genome duplication.

ATP-dependent DNA helicase II subunit 2; Subunit of telomeric Ku complex (Yku70p-Yku80p); involved in telomere length maintenance, structure and telomere position effect; required for localization of telomerase ribonucleoprotein via interaction with TLC1 guide RNA; relocates to sites of double-strand cleavage to promote nonhomologous end joining during DSB repair; colocalizes with quiescent cell telomere hyperclusters; Belongs to the ku80 family.
