Proline-rich protein LAS17; Actin assembly factor; C-terminal WCA domain activates Arp2/3 complex-mediated nucleation of branched actin filaments, polyproline domain nucleates actin filaments independent of Arp2/3; mutants are defective in endocytosis, bud site selection, cytokinesis; human homolog WAS (Wiskott-Aldrich Syndrome) implicated in severe immunodeficiency; human WAS complements yeast null mutant, but only in presence of WIPF1, which mediates localization of WAS to cortical patches.

Protein involved in calcineurin regulation during calcium signaling; has similarity to H. sapiens DSCR1 which is found in the Down Syndrome candidate region.

Chromosome instability protein 1; Tubulin folding factor D involved in beta-tubulin (Tub2p) folding; isolated as mutant with increased chromosome loss and sensitivity to benomyl.

Transcriptional regulator CRZ1; Transcription factor, activates transcription of stress response genes; nuclear localization is positively regulated by calcineurin-mediated dephosphorylation; rapidly localizes to the nucleus under blue light stress; can be activated in stochastic pulses of nuclear localization in response to calcium.

Myosin-3; One of two type I myosins; localizes to actin cortical patches; deletion of MYO3 has little effect on growth, but myo3 myo5 double deletion causes severe defects in growth and actin cytoskeleton organization; MYO3 has a paralog, MYO5, that arose from the whole genome duplication; Belongs to the TRAFAC class myosin-kinesin ATPase superfamily. Myosin family.

Protein MSP1; Highly-conserved N-terminally anchored AAA-ATPase; distributed in the mitochondrial outer membrane and peroxisomes; involved in mitochondrial protein sorting; functions as an extraction engine in local organelle surveillance to remove and initiate degradation of mistargeted proteins, ensuring fidelity of organelle-specific localization of tail-anchored proteins; contains an N-terminal transmembrane domain and C-terminal cytoplasmic ATPase domain.

Actin; structural protein involved in cell polarization, endocytosis, and other cytoskeletal functions.

SH3 domain protein implicated in regulating actin polymerization; able to recruit actin polymerization machinery through its SH3 domains; colocalizes with cortical actin patches and Las17p; interacts with type I myosins.

Myosin-1; Type II myosin heavy chain; required for wild-type cytokinesis and cell separation; localizes to the actomyosin ring; binds to myosin light chains Mlc1p and Mlc2p through its IQ1 and IQ2 motifs respectively.
