MATALPHA1

Gene
MATALPHA1
Protein
Mating-type protein ALPHA1
Organism
Kluyveromyces lactis (strain ATCC 8585 / CBS 2359 / DSM 70799 / NBRC 1267 / NRRL Y-1140 / WM37)
Length
261 amino acids
Function
Mating type proteins are sequence specific DNA-binding proteins that act as master switches in yeast differentiation by controlling gene expression in a cell type-specific fashion. Transcriptional activator that induces the transcription of alpha-specific genes (By similarity). Required for mating as an alpha-cell.
Similarity
Belongs to the MATALPHA1 family.

Gene
MATALPHA1
Protein
Mating-type protein ALPHA1
Organism
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (strain ATCC 204508 / S288c)
Length
175 amino acids
Function
Mating type proteins are sequence specific DNA-binding proteins that act as master switches in yeast differentiation by controlling gene expression in a cell type-specific fashion. Transcriptional coactivator that, in alpha-cells, binds cooperatively with MCM1 and STE12 to a DNA sequence termed the QP' element, to activate the transcription of alpha-specific genes.
Similarity
Belongs to the MATALPHA1 family.
