Gene Ontology Help

RENT 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
Regulates transcriptional silencing at the rDNA locus. Silencing within the yeast rDNA repeats inhibits hyperrecombination, represses transcription from foreign promoters, regulates cell cycle progression and extends replicative life span.Interaction with FOB1 is required for the association of the RENT complex with the rDNA non-transcribed spacer region and for silencing at this location.
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, chromatin organization, nucleolus, organelle, intracellular membraneless organelle
