Function
[Q9EZJ8_THEAQ] Sigma factors are initiation factors that promote the attachment of RNA polymerase to specific initiation sites and are then released (By similarity).[RuleBase:RU000715] [RPOA_ECOLI] DNA-dependent RNA polymerase catalyzes the transcription of DNA into RNA using the four ribonucleoside triphosphates as substrates. This subunit plays an important role in subunit assembly since its dimerization is the first step in the sequential assembly of subunits to form the holoenzyme.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_00059]
