products description :
MAb to alpha subunit of E.coli RNA polymerase. Alpha is a 36 kDA subunit of the E.coli RNA polymerase. alpha is a 36kDA subunit of E.coli RNA polymerase. alpha (alpha) is a 36kDA subunit of the E.coli RNA polymerase. DNA-dependent RNA polymerase catalyzes the transcription of DNA into RNA using the four ribonucleoside triphosphates as substrates. The alpha subunit of RNA polymerase plays an important role in subunit assembly since its dimerization is the first step in the sequential assembly of subunits to form the holoenzyme.

uniprot summary :
Function: 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. Catalytic activity: Nucleoside triphosphate + RNA(n) = diphosphate + RNA(n+1). HAMAP-Rule MF_00059. Subunit structure: Homodimer. 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. Domain: The N-terminal domain is essential for RNAP assembly and basal transcription, whereas the C-terminal domain is involved in interaction with transcriptional regulators and with upstream promoter elements. HAMAP-Rule MF_00059. Sequence similarities: Belongs to the RNA polymerase alpha chain family.
