Protein
Mating-type-like protein ALPHA1
Organism
Candida glabrata (strain ATCC 2001 / CBS 138 / JCM 3761 / NBRC 0622 / NRRL Y-65)
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).
Similarity
Belongs to the MATALPHA1 family.
