| Standard Name | Sir4p 1 |
|---|---|
| Systematic Name | Ydr227wp |
| Alias | Asd1p , Ste9p , Uth2p |
| ORF Classification | Verified |
| Description | Silent information regulator that, together with SIR2 and SIR3, is involved in assembly of silent chromatin domains at telomeres and the silent mating-type loci; potentially phosphorylated by Cdc28p; some alleles of SIR4 prolong lifespan (2, 3, 4) |
