ISW1b chromatin remodeling complex 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
ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling complex, however ISW1b has a low affinity for nucleosomes resulting in a loss of nucleosome spacing and sliding activities. Appears to play a role in response to increases in temperature and is required for the transcriptional repression of a number of genes, this set differs from those repressed by ISW1a (CPX-637) with which it shares a catalytic subunit.
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.

DNA binding, ion binding, chromatin organization, response to heat, response to stress
