| UniProt functional annotation for Q664U6 | |||
| UniProt code: Q664U6. |
| Organism: | Yersinia pseudotuberculosis serotype I (strain IP32953). | |
| Taxonomy: | Bacteria; Proteobacteria; Gammaproteobacteria; Enterobacterales; Yersiniaceae; Yersinia. | |
| Function: | DNA-dependent RNA polymerase catalyzes the transcription of DNA into RNA using the four ribonucleoside triphosphates as substrates. | |
| Catalytic activity: | Reaction=a ribonucleoside 5'-triphosphate + RNA(n) = diphosphate + RNA(n+1); Xref=Rhea:RHEA:21248, Rhea:RHEA-COMP:11128, Rhea:RHEA- COMP:11129, ChEBI:CHEBI:33019, ChEBI:CHEBI:61557, ChEBI:CHEBI:83400; EC=2.7.7.6; Evidence={ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_00059}; | |
| Subunit: | Homodimer. The RNAP catalytic core consists of 2 alpha, 1 beta, 1 beta' and 1 omega subunit. When a sigma factor is associated with the core the holoenzyme is formed, which can initiate transcription. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_00059}. | |
| Domain: | The N-terminal domain is essential for RNAP assembly and basal transcription, whereas the C-terminal domain is involved in interaction with transcriptional regulators and with upstream promoter elements. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_00059}. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the RNA polymerase alpha chain family. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_00059}. | |
