DNA replication factor C complex, ELG1 variant Overview

GO Annotations consist of four mandatory components: a gene product, a term from one of the three Gene Ontology (GO) controlled vocabularies (Molecular Function, Biological Process, and Cellular Component), a reference, and an evidence code.


Summary
DNA-dependent ATPase clamp-unloader complex that acts to remove PCNA (P15873, CPX-544) remaining on DNA after the completion of DNA replication and repair during the S phase of the cell cycle. The complex binds to DNA-loaded PCNA to induce opening of the PCNA ring, leading to the release of ELG1-RFC bound-PCNA.Role in sister chromatid cohesion, unloading both unmodified and SUMOylated PCNA from DNA following replication. This is a genome-wide process and follows Okazaki fragment ligation.
GO Slim Terms

The yeast GO Slim terms are higher level terms that best represent the major S. cerevisiae biological processes, functions, and cellular components. The GO Slim terms listed here are the broader parent terms for the specific terms to which this gene product is annotated, and thus represent the more general processes, functions, and components in which it is involved.
