GO:0003700 sequence-specific DNA binding transcription factor activity Interacting selectively and non-covalently with a specific DNA sequence in order to modulate transcription. The transcription factor may or may not also interact selectively with a protein or macromolecular complex.
GO:0003674 molecular_function Elemental activities, such as catalysis or binding, describing the actions of a gene product at the molecular level. A given gene product may exhibit one or more molecular functions.
GO:0000981 sequence-specific DNA binding RNA polymerase II transcription factor activity Interacting selectively and non-covalently with a specific DNA sequence in order to modulate transcription by RNA polymerase II. The transcription factor may or may not also interact selectively with a protein or macromolecular complex.
GO:0001071 nucleic acid binding transcription factor activity Interacting selectively and non-covalently with a DNA or RNA sequence in order to modulate transcription. The transcription factor may or may not also interact selectively with a protein or macromolecular complex.
GO:0004879 ligand-activated sequence-specific DNA binding RNA polymerase II transcription factor activity Combining with a signal and transmitting the signal to the transcriptional machinery by interacting selectively and non-covalently with a specific DNA sequence in order to modulate transcription by RNA polymerase II.
GO:0098531 direct ligand regulated sequence-specific DNA binding transcription factor activity A DNA binding transcription factor activity that is directly regulated by binding of a ligand to the protein with this activity. Examples include the lac and trp repressors in E.coli and many steroid hormone receptors.
