Structural highlights 6dcf is a 9 chain structure with sequence from [1] and Mycobacterium smegmatis (strain atcc 700084 / mc(2)155). Full crystallographic information is available from OCA. For a guided tour on the structure components use FirstGlance. Ligands: , , , , , Activity: DNA-directed RNA polymerase, with EC number 2.7.7.6 Resources: FirstGlance, OCA, PDBe, RCSB, PDBsum, ProSAT Function [A0QW02_MYCS2] Sigma factors are initiation factors that promote the attachment of RNA polymerase to specific initiation sites and are then released. This sigma factor is the primary sigma factor during exponential growth.[SAAS:SAAS00535554] [RPOB_MYCS2] DNA-dependent RNA polymerase catalyzes the transcription of DNA into RNA using the four ribonucleoside triphosphates as substrates. This subunit often mutates to generate rifampicin (Rif) resistance. Interaction with RbpA partially restores Rif-inhibited transcription; once the subunit is Rif-resistant however RbpA no longer stimulates transcription.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01321] [RPOA_MYCS2] DNA-dependent RNA polymerase catalyzes the transcription of DNA into RNA using the four ribonucleoside triphosphates as substrates.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_00059] [RBPA_MYCS2] Binds to RNA polymerase (RNAP), probably stimulating transcriptions from principal, but not alternative sigma factor promoters (By similarity). Partially restores transcription in the presence of rifampicin (Rif) in vitro; overexpression leads to an increase in the Rif tolerance in vivo, with smaller colonies. Seems to act by removing Rif from its binding site and preventing its further binding. No longer stimulates transcription in Rif-resistant RNA polymerase (with mutations in rpoB). [RPOC_MYCS2] DNA-dependent RNA polymerase catalyzes the transcription of DNA into RNA using the four ribonucleoside triphosphates as substrates.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01322] [RPOZ_MYCS2] Promotes RNA polymerase assembly. Latches the N- and C-terminal regions of the beta' subunit thereby facilitating its interaction with the beta and alpha subunits.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_00366]
