| Standard Name | ABF2 1 (see Nomenclature conflict Note) |
|---|---|
| Systematic Name | YMR072W |
| Feature Type | ORF, Verified |
| Description | Mitochondrial DNA-binding protein; involved in mitochondrial DNA replication and recombination, member of HMG1 DNA-binding protein family; activity may be regulated by protein kinase A phosphorylation; ABF2 has a paralog, IXR1, that arose from the whole genome duplication (1, 2, 3, 4) |

NOMENCLATURE CONFLICT NOTE
| Name | Relevance | Description |
|---|---|---|
| HIM1 | Nomenclature conflict | HIM1 has been used to refer to both ABF2/YMR072W, which encodes a mitochondrial DNA-binding protein, and HIM1/YDR317W that plays a role in mismatch repair. |
