Gene Ontology Details

Gene Ontology

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. SGD has manually curated and high-throughput GO Annotations, both derived from the literature, as well as computational, or predicted, annotations. Click "Gene Ontology Details" to view all GO information and evidence for this locus as well as biological processes it shares with other genes.

Phenotype Details

Phenotype

Phenotype annotations for a gene are curated single mutant phenotypes that require an observable (e.g., "cell shape"), a qualifier (e.g., "abnormal"), a mutant type (e.g., null), strain background, and a reference. In addition, annotations are classified as classical genetics or high-throughput (e.g., large scale survey, systematic mutation set). Whenever possible, allele information and additional details are provided. Click "Phenotype Details" to view all phenotype annotations and evidence for this locus as well as phenotypes it shares with other genes.


Interaction Details

Interaction

Interaction annotations are curated by BioGRID and include physical or genetic interactions observed between at least two genes. An interaction annotation is composed of the interaction type, name of the interactor, assay type (e.g., Two-Hybrid), annotation type (e.g., manual or high-throughput), and a reference, as well as other experimental details. Click "Interaction Details" to view all interaction annotations and evidence for this locus, including an interaction visualization.

Summary
SPN1 encodes a highly-conserved chromatin-associated transcription factor with a conserved central domain composed of eight alpha-helices similar in structure to TFIIS. Spn1p occupies poised promoters in the uninduced state, along with RNA polymerase II. Histone chaperone Spt6p and the Swi/Snf complex are recruited upon activation. Spt6p promotes reassembly of nucleosomes following passage of RNA polymerase II. By interacting with both RNA polymerase II and Spt6p, Spn1p links the regulation of the poised promoter to chromatin architecture, and is an important regulator of the Spt6-nucleosome interaction. Binding of Spn1p at poised promoters blocks the recruitment of the Swi/Snf complex in the uninduced state and serves as a platform for the recruitment of Spt6p during the activated state. Spn1p and Spt6p have also been implicated in mRNA processing.

Expression Details

Expression

Expression data are derived from records contained in the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO), and are first log2 transformed and normalized. Referenced datasets may contain one or more condition(s), and as a result there may be a greater number of conditions than datasets represented in a single clickable histogram bar. The histogram division at 0.0 separates the down-regulated (green) conditions and datasets from those that are up-regulated (red).
