ISW1

SGN2, chromatin-remodeling ATPase ISW1, L000004447, YBR245C
ATPase subunit of imitation-switch (ISWI) class chromatin remodelers; with Ioc3p forms Isw1a complex involved in repression of transcription initiation; with Ioc2p and Ioc4p forms Isw1b complex involved in regulation of transcription elongation; Isw1b recruited to ORFs by H3K36 methylation and acts with Chd1p to prevent trans-histone exchange over coding regions; Isw1p import into nucleus depends on C-terminal bipartite nuclear targeting signal KRIR X19 KKAK
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)

RTF1

CSL3, L000001782, YGL244W
Subunit of RNAPII-associated chromatin remodeling Paf1 complex; regulates gene expression by directing cotranscriptional histone modification, influences transcription and chromatin structure through several independent functional domains; directly or indirectly regulates DNA-binding properties of Spt15p and relative activities of different TATA elements; involved in transcription elongation as demonstrated by the G-less-based run-on (GLRO) assay

Phenotypic Enhancement

A genetic interaction is inferred when mutation or overexpression of one gene results in enhancement of any phenotype (other than lethality/growth defect) associated with mutation or over expression of another gene.

Publication

A direct interaction between the Chd1 CHCT domain and Rtf1 controls Chd1 distribution and nucleosome positioning on active genes.

The nucleosome remodeler Chd1 is required for the re-establishment of nucleosome positioning in the wake of transcription elongation by RNA Polymerase II. Previously, we found that Chd1 occupancy on gene bodies depends on the Rtf1 subunit of the Paf1 complex in yeast. Here, we identify an N-terminal region of Rtf1 and the CHCT domain of Chd1 as sufficient for their ... [more]
