|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| MATALPHA | MATALPHA | MATALPHA | MAT | Mating type locus; note that the systematic sequence in SGD contains MATalpha sequences | |
| MATALPHA1 | MATALPHA1 | YCR040W | ALPHA1 | Transcriptional co-activator involved in regulation of mating-type-specific gene expression; targets the transcription factor Mcm1p to the promoters of alpha-specific genes; one of two genes encoded by the MATalpha mating type cassette | |
| MATALPHA2 | MATALPHA2 | YCR039C | ALPHA2 | Homeobox-domain protein that, with Mcm1p, represses a-specific genes in haploids; acts with A1p to repress transcription of haploid-specific genes in diploids; one of two genes encoded by the MATalpha mating type cassette |
