Centromere-binding protein 1

UniProtKB accession:  P17106

Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  Required for chromosome stability and methionine prototrophy. It is involved in chromosomal segregation. Binds to a highly conserved DNA sequence (5'-RTCACRTG-3'), called CDEI, found in centromeres and in several promoters. DNA-binding activity is enhanced by MET28. Required as an auxiliary factor for transcriptional activation of sulfur metabolism together with MET4 and MET28.
