Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of gene expression. Gene expression is the process in which a gene's coding sequence is converted into a mature gene product or products (proteins or RNA). This includes the production of an RNA transcript as well as any processing to produce a mature RNA product or an mRNA (for protein-coding genes) and the translation of that mRNA into protein. Some protein processing events may be included when they are required to form an active form of a product from an inactive precursor form. Repression of transcription by altering the structure of chromatin, e.g. by conversion of large regions of DNA into an inaccessible state often called heterochromatin. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of the chemical reactions and pathways involving nitrogen or nitrogenous compounds. Any transcriptional or post-transcriptional process carried out at the cellular level that results in long-term gene inactivation. Any process that modulates the rate, frequency or extent of the chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of a macromolecule, any molecule of high relative molecular mass, the structure of which essentially comprises the multiple repetition of units derived, actually or conceptually, from molecules of low relative molecular mass. The cellular synthesis of either RNA on a template of DNA or DNA on a template of RNA. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of the chemical reactions and pathways within a cell or an organism involving those compounds formed as a part of the normal anabolic and catabolic processes. These processes take place in most, if not all, cells of the organism. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of chromatin silencing by small RNA. Chromatin silencing by small RNA is the repression of transcription by conversion of large regions of DNA into heterochromatin, directed by small RNAs sharing sequence identity to the repressed region. Any cellular process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of the chemical reactions and pathways involving nucleobases, nucleosides, nucleotides and nucleic acids. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of the chemical reactions and pathways by which individual cells transform chemical substances. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of the chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of substances, carried out by individual cells. Any cellular metabolic process involving nucleobases, nucleosides, nucleotides and nucleic acids. Any process that modulates the rate, frequency, or extent of gene silencing, the transcriptional or post-transcriptional process carried out at the cellular level that results in long-term gene inactivation. Any epigenetic process that stops, prevents or reduces the rate of gene expression. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of a cellular process, any of those that are carried out at the cellular level, but are not necessarily restricted to a single cell. For example, cell communication occurs among more than one cell, but occurs at the cellular level. Any process that modulates the rate, frequency, or extent of the repression of transcription by methylation of DNA, leading to the formation of heterochromatin. Any process that affects the rate, extent or location of chromatin silencing. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate, or extent of chromatin silencing at silent mating-type cassette. Chromatin silencing at silent mating-type cassette is the repression of transcription at silent mating-type loci by altering the structure of chromatin. Any process that affects the rate, extent or location of chromatin silencing at telomeres. Any process that stops, prevents or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of cellular DNA-dependent transcription. Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of chromatin silencing. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of the synthesis of either RNA on a template of DNA or DNA on a template of RNA. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of chromatin silencing at the centromere. Chromatin silencing at the centromere is the repression of transcription of centromeric DNA by altering the structure of chromatin. Any process that stops, prevents or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of chromatin silencing.
