Chaperone with a role in SUMO-mediated protein degradation; member of the DnaJ-like family; conserved across eukaryotes; overexpression interferes with propagation of the [Psi+] prion; the authentic, non-tagged protein is detected in highly purified mitochondria in high-throughput studies; forms nuclear foci upon DNA replication stress

Nuclear type II J heat shock protein of the E. coli dnaJ family, contains a leucine zipper-like motif, binds to non-native substrates for presentation to Ssa3p, may function during protein translocation, assembly and disassembly

Mitochondrial inner membrane protein, ortholog of mammalian mitofilin; involved in import of intermembrane space (IMS) proteins, probably by positioning Mia40p relative to the TOM complex to receive incoming proteins; also has an essential role in the maintenance of crista junctions and inner membrane architecture, as a component of the mitochondrial inner membrane organizing system (MICOS, MitOS or MINOS), a scaffold-like structure on the IMS side of the inner membrane

Co-chaperone for Hsp40p, anchored in the ER membrane; with its homolog Ydj1p promotes ER-associated protein degradation (ERAD) of integral membrane substrates; similar to E. coli DnaJ

Co-chaperone that stimulates the ATPase activity of Ssa1p, required for a late step of ribosome biogenesis; associated with the cytosolic large ribosomal subunit; contains a J-domain; mutation causes defects in fluid-phase endocytosis

Co-chaperone that stimulates the ATPase activity of the HSP70 protein Ssc1p; involved in protein folding/refolding in the mitochodrial matrix; required for proteolysis of misfolded proteins; member of the HSP40 (DnaJ) family of chaperones

Meiosis-specific telomere protein, required for bouquet formation, effective homolog pairing, ordered cross-over distribution, sister chromatid cohesion at meiotic telomeres, chromosomal segregation and telomere-led rapid prophase movement

Protein involved in regulation of nonhomologous end joining; interacts with DNA ligase IV components Dnl4p and Lif1p; repressed by MAT heterozygosity; regulates cellular distribution of Lif1p

Nuclear envelope protein, anchored to the nuclear inner membrane, that interacts with the vacuolar membrane protein Vac8p to promote formation of nucleus-vacuole junctions during piecemeal microautophagy of the nucleus (PMN)

One of several homologs of bacterial chaperone DnaJ, located in the ER lumen where it cooperates with Kar2p to mediate maturation of proteins

Aspartate tRNA (tRNA-Asp), predicted by tRNAscan-SE analysis

Glycine tRNA (tRNA-Gly), predicted by tRNAscan-SE analysis

Methionine tRNA (tRNA-Met), functions in translational elongation; not involved in translational initiation; predicted by tRNAscan-SE analysis

Arginine tRNA (tRNA-Arg), predicted by tRNAscan-SE analysis; one of 11 nuclear tRNA genes containing the tDNA-anticodon UCU (converted to mcm5-UCU in the mature tRNA), decodes AGA codons into arginine, one of 19 nuclear tRNAs for arginine

Tyrosine tRNA (tRNA-Tyr), predicted by tRNAscan-SE analysis; can mutate to suppress ochre nonsense mutations

Chaperone with a role in facilitating mitochondrial protein import; ascomycete-specific member of the DnaJ-like family, closely related to Ydj1p; predicted to be C-terminally prenylated; the authentic, non-tagged protein is detected in highly purified mitochondria in high-throughput studies

Type I HSP40 co-chaperone; involved in regulation of HSP90 and HSP70 functions; critical for determining cell size at Start as a function of growth rate; involved in protein translocation across membranes; member of the DnaJ family
