Solution structure of the delta subunit of RNA polymerase from Bacillus subtilis
Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 23868186
Function
[RPOE_BACSU] Participates in both the initiation and recycling phases of transcription. In the presence of the delta subunit, RNAP displays an increased specificity of transcription, a decreased affinity for nucleic acids, and an increased efficiency of RNA synthesis because of enhanced recycling. May function in sigma factor switching. It displaces RNA bound to RNA polymerase in a binary complex.
About this Structure
2m4k is a 1 chain structure with sequence from Bacillus subtilis subsp. subtilis str. 168. Full experimental information is available from OCA.
