General annotation (Comments)

Function

DNA-dependent RNA polymerase catalyzes the transcription of DNA into RNA using the four ribonucleoside triphosphates as substrates. Responsible for the transcription of the late genes of T7. It is rifampicin-resistant. It recognizes a specific promoter sequence, unwinds the double-stranded RNA to expose the coding strand for templating, initiates transcription preferentially with a purine.

Catalytic activity

Nucleoside triphosphate + RNA(n) = diphosphate + RNA(n+1).

Subunit structure

Monomer.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the phage and mitochondrial RNA polymerase family.
