YDL079C (MRK1)

saccharomyces cerevisiae

Glycogen synthase kinase 3 (GSK-3) homolog; one of four GSK-3 homologs in S. cerevisiae that function to activate Msn2p-dependent transcription of stress responsive genes and that function in protein degradation; MRK1 has a paralog, RIM11, that arose from the whole genome duplication
