| Standard Name | ESC8 1 |
|---|---|
| Systematic Name | YOL017W |
| Feature Type | ORF, Verified |
| Description | Protein involved in telomeric and mating-type locus silencing; interacts with Sir2p and also interacts with Gal11p, which is a component of the RNA pol II mediator complex; ESC8 has a paralog, IOC3, that arose from the whole genome duplication (1, 2) |
