Protein required for the maintenance of bud site selection; localizes; localization to the bud neck and previous sites of cell division (bud scars; cytokinesis remnants (CRMs)) is interdependent with Rax2p; required with Rax1p to anchor both Nba1p and Nis1p to CRMs where a Cdc42p inhibitory zone is established preventing repolarization of cells at previous division sites; RAX2 mRNA stability is regulated by Mpt5p; predicted type I membrane-spanning protein; N-glycosylated
