Structure of the Mtb CarD/RNAP Beta subunit B1-B2 domains complex

Function

[RPOB_MYCTU] DNA-dependent RNA polymerase catalyzes the transcription of DNA into RNA using the four ribonucleoside triphosphates as substrates.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01321] [CARD_MYCTU] Controls rRNA transcription by binding to the RNA polymerase (RNAP). Required for replication and persistence during infection of mice.[1] [2]
