Gene : NRPD2A A. thaliana

DB identifier  ? AT3G23780 Secondary Identifier  ? locus:2095233
Name  ? nuclear RNA polymerase D2A Brief Description  nuclear RNA polymerase D2A
TAIR Computational Description  nuclear RNA polymerase D2A;(source:Araport11)
TAIR Curator Summary  This gene encodes the second largest, catalytic subunit of the nuclear DNA-dependent RNA polymerase IV (aka RNA polymerase D). The NRPD2 protein is found at nuclear foci that overlap or are adjacent to chromocentromeres but are not fully coincident with chromocentromeres. The loss of NRPD2 leads to the loss of cytosine methylation at pericentromeric 5S genes and AtSN1 retroelements but has no discernible effect on centromere repeat methylation. This suggests that Pol IV primarily affects facultative heterochromatin rather than constitutive heterochromatin.
