Dsl1 tethering 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
Multisubunit tethering complex essential for the retrograde traffic of COPI-coated vesicles from the Golgi to the ER. Binds to individual SNAREs via their N-terminal regulatory domains and also to assembled SNARE complexes, and is capable of accelerating SNARE complex assembly. SNARE binding mediates fusion of COPI vesicles with the endoplasmic reticulum.
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.
