- Name
- transcription-dependent tethering of RNA polymerase II gene DNA at nuclear periphery
- Ontology or CV name
- GO biological process
- Definition
- The chromosome organization process in which the DNA sequence containing a gene transcribed by RNA polymerase II is maintained in a specific location at the nuclear periphery. In S. cerevisiae, this process involves cis-acting DNA sequences such as the TATA box and upstream activating sequence (UAS) elements, trans-acting transcriptional activators, and also the 3'-UTR of the transcript.
