rtx2

Gene
rtx2
Protein
Transcriptional regulatory protein rxt2
Organism
Schizosaccharomyces pombe (strain 972 / ATCC 24843)
Length
240 amino acids
Function
Component of the RPD3C(L) histone deacetylase complex (HDAC) responsible for the deacetylation of lysine residues on the N-terminal part of the core histones (H2A, H2B, H3 and H4). Histone deacetylation gives a tag for epigenetic repression and plays an important role in transcriptional regulation, cell cycle progression and developmental events (By similarity).
Similarity
Belongs to the RXT2 family.
