Drosophila melanogaster scavenger receptor acting in neural tissue and majority of rhodopsin is absent (santa-maria) encodes a class B scavenger receptor that contributes to the conversion of carotenoids to vitamin A. It is involved in phototransduction and thermotaxis.
- Prp5 [Search on AGR]
Saccharomyces cerevisiae RNA helicase in the DEAD-box family; necessary for prespliceosome formation, bridges U1 and U2 snRNPs and enables stable U2 snRNP association with intron RNA
- mbf1 [Search on AGR]
Saccharomyces cerevisiae Transcriptional coactivator; bridges the DNA-binding region of Gcn4p and TATA-binding protein Spt15p; suppressor of frameshift mutations; protein abundance increases in response to DNA replication stress
- DPB11 [Search on AGR]
Saccharomyces cerevisiae DNA replication initiation protein; loads DNA pol epsilon onto pre-replication complexes at origins; checkpoint sensor recruited to stalled replication forks by the checkpoint clamp complex where it activates Mec1p; along with Rfa1p, binds to ultrafine anaphase bridges in mitotic cells and prevents accumulation of chromatin bridges by stimulating the Mec1p kinase and suppressing homologous recombination; ortholog of human TopBP1; forms nuclear foci upon DNA replication stress
- KRE28 [Search on AGR]
Saccharomyces cerevisiae Subunit of a kinetochore-microtubule binding complex; complex bridges centromeric heterochromatin and kinetochore MAPs and motors; required for sister chromatid bi-orientation and kinetochore binding of SAC components; complex also includes Spc105p; modified by sumoylation
- SPC105 [Search on AGR]
Saccharomyces cerevisiae Subunit of a kinetochore-microtubule binding complex; complex bridges centromeric heterochromatin and kinetochore MAPs and motors; required for sister chromatid bi-orientation and kinetochore binding of SAC components; complex also includes Kre28p; modified by sumoylation
- Tex14 [Search on AGR]
Homo sapiens The protein encoded by this gene is necessary for intercellular bridges in germ cells, which are required for spermatogenesis. Three transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Jan 2011]
- RPL24A [Search on AGR]
Saccharomyces cerevisiae Ribosomal 60S subunit protein L24A; forms two bridges within ribosome, stimulates translation initiation and elongation; homologous to mammalian ribosomal protein L24, no bacterial homolog; RPL24A has a paralog, RPL24B, that arose from the whole genome duplication
- RPL24B [Search on AGR]
Saccharomyces cerevisiae Ribosomal 60S subunit protein L24B; forms two bridges within ribosome, stimulates translation initiation and elongation; homologous to mammalian ribosomal protein L24, no bacterial homolog; RPL24B has a paralog, RPL24A, that arose from the whole genome duplication

Homo sapiens This gene encodes one of the major intermediate filament proteins of mature astrocytes. It is used as a marker to distinguish astrocytes from other glial cells during development. Mutations in this gene cause Alexander disease, a rare disorder of astrocytes in the central nervous system. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms.
