Descriptions Names[Advanced Search]

Elemental activities, such as catalysis or binding, describing the actions of a gene product at the molecular level. A given gene product may exhibit one or more molecular functions. Functions to prevent the termination of RNA synthesis. Acts as a regulatory device, e.g. in phage lambda, enabling a terminator to be masked from RNA polymerase so that distal genes can be expressed. Plays a role in regulating transcription; may bind a promoter or enhancer DNA sequence or interact with a DNA-binding transcription factor.
