MSN2/YMR037C Protein Information Help

Standard Name Msn2p 1
Systematic Name Ymr037cp
ORF Classification Verified
Description Transcriptional activator; activated in stress conditions, which results in translocation from the cytoplasm to the nucleus; binds DNA at stress response elements of responsive genes, inducing gene expression; MSN2 has a paralog, MSN4, that arose from the whole genome duplication; relative distribution to the nucleus increases upon DNA replication stress (2, 3, 4, 5)
Name Description Multicopy suppressor of SNF1 mutation 1
Experimental Data
Molecules/cell 125 6
Predicted Sequence Formatted Sequence or sequence in FASTA format
Length (a.a.) 704
Molecular Weight (Da) 77,860
Isoelectric Point (pI) 6.55
