Systematic name YOR269W
Gene name PAC1
Aliases
Feature type ORF, Verified
Coordinates Chr XV:826385..827869
Primary SGDID S000005795


Description of YOR269W: Involved in nuclear migration, part of the dynein/dynactin pathway; targets dynein to microtubule tips, which is necessary for sliding of microtubules along bud cortex; serves at interface between dynein's ATPase site and its microtubule binding stalk, causing individual dynein motors to remain attached to microtubules for long periods; synthetic lethal with bni1; homolog of human LIS1, mutations in which cause the severe brain disorder lissencephaly[1][2][3]
