rpoZ (DNA-directed RNA polymerase subunit omega)

FEATURES

FAMILY

DESCRIPTION

Also known as RPOZ_BURCJ, rpoZ. 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. 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.
