Gene Ontology Information

Protein Name	Hsp31p
Description	Methylglyoxalase that converts methylglyoxal to D-lactate; involved in oxidative stress resistance, diauxic shift, and stationary phase survival; has similarity to E. coli Hsp31 and C. albicans Glx3p; member of the DJ-1/ThiJ/PfpI superfamily, which includes human DJ-1 involved in Parkinson's disease and cancer; exists as a dimer and contains a putative metal-binding site; protein abundance increases in response to DNA replication stress
GO Terms: Biological Process	level 4: chaperone-mediated protein folding level 5: cellular response to nutrient levels level 5: cellular response to oxidative stress level 6: lactate biosynthetic process level 7: methylglyoxal catabolic process to D-lactate via S-lactoyl-glutathione
GO Terms: Molecular Function	level 2: protein folding chaperone level 3: lyase activity level 6: glyoxalase III activity
GO Terms: Cellular Component	level 3: cytoplasm level 5: cytoplasmic stress granule level 5: P-body
