Silenced copy of a2 at HMR; similarity to Alpha2p; required along with a1p for inhibiting expression of the HO endonuclease in a/alpha HO/HO diploid cells with an active mating-type interconversion system
bark beetle (bark) encodes a putative transmembrane scavenger receptor-like protein that is essential for the maturation of septate junctions (SJ). Loss of bark produces cell adhesion defects and mislocalization of SJ core complexes.
pickel (pck) encodes a transmembrane protein of the Claudin superfamily. It is part of the septate junction (SJ) core complex and essential for SJ morphogenesis and function. The transepithelial barrier function of epithelial tissues is affected in pck mutants.
Component of the Rpd3L histone deacetylase complex; zinc-finger inhibitor of HO transcription; mRNA is localized and translated in the distal tip of anaphase cells, resulting in accumulation of Ash1p in daughter cell nuclei and inhibition of HO expression; potential Cdc28p substrate
F-box receptor protein; subunit of the Skp1-Cdc53-F-box receptor (SCF) E3 ubiquitin ligase complex; binds to phosphorylated Ho endonuclease, allowing its ubiquitination by SCF and subsequent degradation
Subunit of the RNA polymerase II mediator complex; associates with core polymerase subunits to form the RNA polymerase II holoenzyme; required for glucose repression, HO repression, RME1 repression and sporulation
Component of glucose deprivation induced stress granules; involved in P-body-dependent granule assembly; regulates TORC1 signaling and autophagy; interacts with Pab1p to regulate mRNA polyadenylation; interacts with Mkt1p to regulate HO translation; regulates expression of genes involved in gluconeogenesis and mitochondrial function through multiple mechanisms
Subunit of the SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex; regulates transcription by remodeling chromatin; required for transcription of many genes, including ADH1, ADH2, GAL1, HO, INO1 and SUC2; self-assembles to form [SWI+] prion and to alter expression pattern; human homolog ARID1A is a candidate tumor suppressor gene in breast cancer
Enables RNA polymerase II transcription regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity and transcription corepressor activity. Involved in several processes, including axon extension involved in axon guidance; negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II; and nematode male tail tip morphogenesis. Located in nucleus. Expressed in several structures, including HO neuron; hypodermis; ray; tail; and ventral body wall muscle. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in glaucoma and vitiligo. Is an ortholog of several human genes including FOXD3 (forkhead box D3); FOXD4 (forkhead box D4); and FOXD4L1 (forkhead box D4 like 1).
