Ceg1p is an mRNA guanylyltransferase in ''Saccharomyces cerevisiae'' that forms a heterotetramer with the RNA triphosphatase Cet1p which is called the mRNA capping apparatus. This complex is recruited by RNA polymerase II (RNAP-II) and performs the first two steps in the 5’-guanisine mRNA capping mechanism. Cet1p hydrolyzes a phosphate from the 5’-triphosphate end of the pre-mRNA.<ref name="source one">PMID:20159466</ref> The Ceg1p guanylyltransferase then adds a guanosine monophosphate to the 5' end of the pre-mRNA, creating a 5'-5' triphosphate linkage. In the final step, an RNA methyltransferase comes and adds a methyl group to the N7 atom of the guanine, completing the 5'-guanine cap.<ref name="source two">PMID:24172134</ref> This 5’ capping is necessary for cells to live in yeast among other organisms. The interactions between Cet1p and Ceg1p are extremely important for inducing capping activity. These interactions both stimulate Ceg1p GMP transfer and help localize the complex in the nucleus where RNAP-II can recruit it.<ref name="source three">PMID:24205062</ref> The capping apparatus is specifically recruited to the Rpb1p subunit of RNAP-II. It binds to the serine-5-phosphorylated-carboxy terminal domain (CTD) of Rpb1p. The capping mechanism occurs while transcription is still occurring, beginning when around 20-25 nucleotides are successfully transcribed by RNAP-II.<ref name="source two"/> Another role that the Cet1-Ceg1 complex has is the suppression of RNAP-II transcription. This transcriptional control involves the capping complex keeping RNAP-II from reinitiating transcription.<ref>PMID:12419231</ref> The capping complex has also been suggested to have regulatory roles in other cellular functions such as cell proliferation and RNA interference.<ref name="source two"/>

This interaction allows the Ceg1p to maintain a conformation that allows it to bind to both the Cet1p homodimer, and RNAP-II during the capping process. The OB and NT domains open and close so that GMP can be properly transferred to the 5' end of the mRNA. Many components of the Cet1-Ceg1 capping apparatus are conserved across evolution. Some highly conserved components include: the NT and OB domains of Ceg1p, the WAQKW motif of Cet1p and the capping apparatus recruitment by RNAP-II.<ref name="source one"/> In ''Candida albicans'', the guanylyltransferase-binding domain was conserved from ''S. cerevisiae''.<ref name="source five"/> This is only one example of the high conservation observed for the Cet1-Ceg1 capping apparatus.
