rpb-6

Gene
rpb-6
Protein
Probable DNA-directed RNA polymerases I, II, and III subunit RPABC2
Organism
Caenorhabditis briggsae
Length
138 amino acids
Function
DNA-dependent RNA polymerases catalyze the transcription of DNA into RNA using the four ribonucleoside triphosphates as substrates. Common component of RNA polymerases I, II and III which synthesize ribosomal RNA precursors, mRNA precursors and many functional non-coding RNAs, and small RNAs, such as 5S rRNA and tRNAs, respectively. Pol II is the central component of the basal RNA polymerase II transcription machinery. Pols are composed of mobile elements that move relative to each other. In Pol II, RPB6 is part of the clamp element and together with parts of RPB1 and RPB2 forms a pocket to which the RPB4-RPB7 subcomplex binds (By similarity).
Similarity
Belongs to the archaeal RpoK/eukaryotic RPB6 RNA polymerase subunit family.
