| Standard Name | SCM3 1 |
|---|---|
| Systematic Name | YDL139C |
| Feature Type | ORF, Verified |
| Description | Nonhistone component of centromeric chromatin; binds to histone H3 variant, Cse4p, and recruits it to centromeres; involved in the assembly and maintenance of Cse4-H4 at centromeres; required for kinetochore assembly and G2/M progression; may protect Cse4p from ubiquitylation; homolog of mammalian HJURP (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7) |
| Name Description | Suppressor of Chromosome Missegregation 2 |
