sce:SPT6

Genes: 33

SGD Description
Nucleosome remodeling protein; functions in various aspects of transcription, chromatin maintenance, and RNA processing; required for the maintenance of chromatin structure during transcription in order to inhibit transcription from promoters within the coding region; required for H3K36 trimethylation but not dimethylation by Set2p


PomBase Description
nucleosome remodeling protein Spt6


AspGD Description
Has domain(s) with predicted hydrolase activity, acting on ester bonds activity and role in nucleobase-containing compound metabolic process
