CC   -!- FUNCTION: DNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RNAP) catalyzes the
CC       transcription of DNA into RNA using the four ribonucleoside
CC       triphosphates as substrates.
CC   -!- CATALYTIC ACTIVITY:
CC       Reaction=a ribonucleoside 5'-triphosphate + RNA(n) = diphosphate +
CC         RNA(n+1); Xref=Rhea:RHEA:21248, Rhea:RHEA-COMP:14527, Rhea:RHEA-

CC   -!- SUBUNIT: Part of the RNA polymerase complex.
CC   -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm.
CC   -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the archaeal Rpo12/eukaryotic RPC10 RNA
CC       polymerase subunit family.
