RIF2

Gene
RIF2
Protein
Protein RIF2
Organism
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (strain ATCC 204508 / S288c)
Length
395 amino acids
Function
Involved in transcriptional silencing and telomere length regulation. Its role in telomere length regulation results from either a block in elongation or promoting degradation of the telomere ends. Loss of RIF1 function results in derepression of an HMR silencer, whose ARS consensus element has been deleted, and in the elongation of telomeres. RAP1 may target the binding of RIF1 to silencers and telomeres.
