What's a GeneRIF?

Dug2p and Dug3p were required together for the cleavage of glutathione into glutamate and Cys-Gly.
Title: Glutathione degradation by the alternative pathway (DUG pathway) in Saccharomyces cerevisiae is initiated by (Dug2p-Dug3p)2 complex, a novel glutamine amidotransferase (GATase) enzyme acting on glutathione.
