| Standard Name | ECM22 1 |
|---|---|
| Systematic Name | YLR228C |
| Feature Type | ORF, Verified |
| Description | Sterol regulatory element binding protein; regulates transcription of sterol biosynthetic genes; contains Zn[2]-Cys[6] binuclear cluster; relocates from intracellular membranes to perinuclear foci on sterol depletion; ECM22 has a paralog, UPC2, that arose from the whole genome duplication (2, 3, 4, 5) |
