CC   -!- FUNCTION: Mating type proteins are sequence specific DNA-binding
CC       proteins that act as master switches in yeast differentiation by
CC       controlling gene expression in a cell type-specific fashion. Required
CC       for meiosis, but plays no role in conjugation (By similarity).
CC       {ECO:0000250}.
CC   -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus {ECO:0000255|PROSITE-ProRule:PRU00108}.
CC   -!- MISCELLANEOUS: There are three genetic loci for mating type genes in
CC       fission yeast, mat1, mat2-P and mat3-M. Cell type is determined by the
CC       alternate allele present in mat1, either P (plus) in a h+ or M (minus)
CC       in a h- cell. Mat2-P and mat3-M serve as donor of information that is
CC       transposed to mat1 during a switch of mating type (By similarity).
CC       {ECO:0000250}.
CC   -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the TALE/M-ATYP homeobox family. {ECO:0000305}.
