| UniProt functional annotation for P79005 | |||
| UniProt code: P79005. |
| Organism: | Schizosaccharomyces pombe (strain 972 / ATCC 24843) (Fission yeast). | |
| Taxonomy: | Eukaryota; Fungi; Dikarya; Ascomycota; Taphrinomycotina; Schizosaccharomycetes; Schizosaccharomycetales; Schizosaccharomycetaceae; Schizosaccharomyces. | |
| Function: | Regulates telomere length and function. Required for the repression of telomere-adjacent gene expression and for normal meiosis or sporulation. It may be a negative regulator of the telomere- replicating enzyme, telomerase, or may protect against activation of telomerase-independent pathways of telomere elongation. It may be involved in the interactions between chromosomes and spindle proteins, disruption of these interactions would lead to defective meiosis. | |
| Subunit: | Interacts with taf1 via the Myb domain, and ccq1. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11270572, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15546621}. | |
| Subcellular location: | Cytoplasm. Nucleus. Chromosome, telomere. | |
