| Systematic Name | YBL061C |
| Alias | CAL2 , CHS4 , CSD4 |
| Feature Type | ORF, Verified |
| Description | Activator of Chs3p (chitin synthase III) during vegetative growth; recruits Chs3p to the bud neck via interaction with Bni4p; SKT5 has a paralog, SHC1, that arose from the whole genome duplication (1, 2, 3, 4, 5) |
