Summary:  FUNCTION: RNA-binding protein involved in the correct localization of transcripts in the cell. RNA localization is a widespread mechanism for achieving localized protein synthesis. Required for the asymmetric localization to the daughter cell nucleus of the ASH1 transcript, encoding for a specific repressor of transcription. Overexpression inhibits translation of the ASH1 transcript. Involved in the stability of transcripts such as the MTL1 mRNA. Involved in structural and functional organization of telomeric chromatin and regulates silencing at the HMR locus.

Summary:  FUNCTION: Acts as a tumor suppressor in many tumor types; induces growth arrest or apoptosis depending on the physiological circumstances and cell type. Involved in cell cycle regulation as a trans-activator that acts to negatively regulate cell division by controlling a set of genes required for this process. One of the activated genes is an inhibitor of cyclin-dependent kinases. Apoptosis induction seems to be mediated either by stimulation of BAX and FAS antigen expression, or by repression of Bcl-2 expression. Implicated in Notch signaling cross-over. Isoform 2 enhances the transactivation activity of isoform 1 from some but not all TP53-inducible promoters. Isoform 4 suppresses transactivation activity and impairs growth suppression mediated by isoform 1. Isoform 7 inhibits isoform 1-mediated apoptosis. COFACTOR: Binds 1 zinc ion per subunit.

Summary:  FUNCTION: Acts as a regulatory subunit of the 26S proteasome which is involved in the ATP-dependent degradation of ubiquitinated proteins. MISCELLANEOUS: Present with 306000 molecules/cell in log phase SD medium.

Summary:  FUNCTION: Probably involved in mitochondrial protein import. Is also required for efficient translocation of pre-pro-alpha-factor. Involved in heme regulation of HAP1, as a component of the high- molecular-weight (HMC) complex.

Summary:  FUNCTION: Required, in concert with mitochondrial Hsp70 (SSC1), for the dissociation, resolubilization and refolding of aggregates of damaged proteins in the mitochondrial matrix after heat stress. May extracts proteins from aggregates by unfolding and threading them in an ATP-dependent process through the axial channel of the protein hexamer, after which they can be refolded by the Hsp70 chaperone system. Required for resumption of mitochondrial respiratory function, DNA synthesis and morphology after heat stress. Its main role may be maintaining the molecular chaperone SSC1 in a soluble and functional state. Also required for the efficient degradation of proteins by matrix protease PIM1, independent on its protein remodeling activity.

Summary:  FUNCTION: Responsible for the deacetylation of lysine residues on the N-terminal part of the core histones (H2A, H2B, H3 and H4). Histone deacetylation gives a tag for epigenetic repression and plays an important role in transcriptional regulation, cell cycle progression and developmental events. Histone deacetylases act via the formation of large multiprotein complexes. Deacetylates SP proteins, SP1 and SP3, and regulates their function. Component of the BRG1-RB1-HDAC1 complex, which negatively regulates the CREST- mediated transcription in resting neurons. Upon calcium stimulation, HDAC1 is released from the complex and CREBBP is recruited, which facilitates transcriptional activation. Deacetylates TSHZ3 and regulates its transcriptional repressor activity. Deacetylates 'Lys-310' in RELA and thereby inhibits the transcriptional activity of NF-kappa-B. CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: Hydrolysis of an N(6)-acetyl-lysine residue of a histone to yield a deacetylated histone.

Summary:  FUNCTION: Molecular chaperone that promotes the maturation, structural maintenance and proper regulation of specific target proteins involved in cell cycle control and signal transduction such as CNA2. Undergoes a functional cycle that is linked to its ATPase activity (By similarity). Interacts dynamically with various co-chaperones that modulate its substrate recognition, ATPase cycle and chaperone function. Required for growth at high temperatures.

Summary:  FUNCTION: Core component of nucleosome. Nucleosomes wrap and compact DNA into chromatin, limiting DNA accessibility to the cellular machineries which require DNA as a template. Histones thereby play a central role in transcription regulation, DNA repair, DNA replication and chromosomal stability. DNA accessibility is regulated via a complex set of post-translational modifications of histones, also called histone code, and nucleosome remodeling. Component of the UAF (upstream activation factor) complex which interacts with the upstream element of the RNA polymerase I promoter and forms a stable preinitiation complex. Together with SPT15/TBP UAF seems to stimulate basal transcription to a fully activated level.
