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.
CC   -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus {ECO:0000255|PROSITE-ProRule:PRU00108}.
CC   -!- MISCELLANEOUS: In P.angusta, all mating-type proteins (MATA1, MATALPHA1
CC       and MATALPHA2) are encoded on one idiomorph, consistent with the fact
CC       that P.angusta is a homothallic haploid in which any strain can mate
CC       with any other strain.
CC   -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the TALE/M-ATYP homeobox family. {ECO:0000305}.
