HMLALPHA2

Gene
HMLALPHA2
Protein
Mating-type protein ALPHA2
Organism
Kluyveromyces lactis (strain ATCC 8585 / CBS 2359 / DSM 70799 / NBRC 1267 / NRRL Y-1140 / WM37)
Length
223 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 corepressor that acts in conjunction with A1 to repress transcription of haploid-specific genes (By similarity).
Similarity
Belongs to the TALE/M-ATYP homeobox family.
