GO Term : GO:0001073 DNA binding transcription antitermination factor activity GO

Namespace  molecular_function Obsolete  false
description  Binds to DNA, typically within region of the promoter and transcribed region, to promote readthrough of a transcription termination site and thus extending the length of the RNA transcript produced. Examples of antitermination factors which bind DNA include the lambda Q protein.
