Nuclear envelope protein; required for SPB insertion, SPB duplication, Kar5p localization near the SPB and nuclear fusion; interacts with Mps2p to tether half-bridge to core SPB; N-terminal acetylation by Eco1p regulates its role in nuclear organization; localizes to the SPB half bridge and telomeres during meiosis; required with Ndj1p and Csm4p for meiotic bouquet formation and telomere-led rapid prophase movement; member of the SUN protein family (Sad1-UNC-84 homology) [Source:SGD;Acc:S000003556]
