Sigma factors are initiation factors that promote the attachment of RNA polymerase to specific initiation sites and are then released. Extracytoplasmic function (ECF) sigma factors are usually held in an inactive form by an anti-sigma factor until released by regulated intramembrane proteolysis; this sigma factor does not seem to have a cognate anti-sigma factor however. It has been suggested that the sigma domains 2 and 4 may interact via polar residues in this protein to autoregulate. Positively regulates expression of a small regulon of genes (By similarity).

Belongs to the sigma-70 factor family. ECF subfamily.
