Comments [?]

FUNCTIONSigma factors are initiation factors that promote the attachment of RNA polymerase to specific initiation sites and are then released. This sigma factor is the primary sigma factor during exponential growth.
SUBUNITInteracts transiently with the RNA polymerase catalytic core.
SUBCELLULAR LOCATIONCytoplasm.
SIMILARITYBelongs to the sigma-70 factor family. RpoD/SigA subfamily.

Comments RpoD/SigA is the major sigma factor of most bacteria. Sequences, domains and nomenclature are highly variable. It is called RpoD in E.coli, and SigA in Bacillota and Actinomycetota.
