GO Term : GO:0001072 RNA binding transcription antitermination factor activity GO

Namespace  molecular_function Obsolete  false
description  Binds to RNA, typically within the nascent RNA transcript, to promote readthrough of a transcription termination site and thus extending the length of the RNA transcript produced. Examples of antitermination factors which bind the nascent RNA include the lambda N protein and the HIV-1 tat protein.
