Type: | Family | Name: | Per33/Pom33 family |
Description: | This entry represents the Per33/Pom33 family. Budding yeast Pom33 is a transmembrane nucleoporin that contributes to proper distribution and/or efficient assembly of nuclear pores. Per33 is a Pom33 paralogue that can be found localising to the endoplasmic reticulum and associating with the nuclear pore complex []. Proteins in this entry also include Tts1 from fission yeasts [], Kr-h2 (krueppel homologue 2) [] from flies and TMEM33 from vertebrates. Tts1 is required for the correct positioning of the cellular division plane by delimiting the actomyosin ring assembly at the cell equator [].Kr-h2 is a member of the dosage-dependent hierarchy effective upon white gene expression []. | Short Name: | Per33/Pom33 |
