Aliases DSN3, NSL2
Feature type ORF, Verified
Coordinates Chr I:79719..80588
Primary SGDID S000000032


Description of YAL034W-A: Essential component of the MIND kinetochore complex (Mtw1p Including Nnf1p-Nsl1p-Dsn1p) which joins kinetochore subunits contacting DNA to those contacting microtubules; critical to kinetochore assembly[1]
