Catalysis of the reaction: nucleoside triphosphate + RNA(n) = diphosphate + RNA(n+1); the synthesis of RNA from ribonucleotide triphosphates in the presence of a nucleic acid template. Catalysis of the reaction: nucleoside triphosphate + RNA (n) = diphosphate + RNA (n+1); uses an RNA template. Catalysis of the reaction: nucleoside triphosphate + RNA(n) = diphosphate + RNA(n+1). Utilizes a DNA template, i.e. the catalysis of DNA-template-directed extension of the 3'-end of an RNA strand by one nucleotide at a time. Can initiate a chain 'de novo'. Catalysis of the transfer of a nucleotidyl group to a reactant. Catalysis of the transfer of a phosphorus-containing group from one compound (donor) to another (acceptor).
