What's a GeneRIF?

Acs2p-mediated synthesis of acetyl-CoA in the nucleus functions to promote rDNA silencing and replicative longevity in yeast
Title: Acetyl-coenzyme A synthetase 2 is a nuclear protein required for replicative longevity in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
Acs2p is shown here to supply the acetyl-CoA for histone acetylation by histone acetyltransferases (HATs).Rapid deacetylation after Acs2p inactivation suggests nuclear acetyl-CoA synthesis is rate limiting for histone acetylation.
Title: Nucleocytosolic acetyl-coenzyme a synthetase is required for histone acetylation and global transcription.
