Protein Domain : IPR007178

Type:  Family Name:  Archaeal transcription elongation factor Spt4
Description:  DNA-directed RNA polymerases,also known as DNA-dependent RNA polymerases, are responsible for the polymerisation of ribonucleotides into a sequence complementary to the template DNA. Eukaryotes have three different DNA-directed RNA polymerases (RNAPs), Pol I, II, and III, whereas Archaea and Bacteria have single enzymes.RNAPs are multisubunit enzymes. Archaeal RNAP is closely related to eukaryotic RNAP II [], which consists of 12 subunits. Archaeal RNAP has an additional subunit, Rpo13, with no orthologue in the eukaryotic enzyme []. In Sulfolobus acidocaldarius, Spt4 (also known as RpoE2) is one of 13 subunits in the RNA polymerase. RpoE2 in Methanocaldococcus jannaschii (Methanococcus jannaschii) contains a predicted C4-type zinc finger at positions 4 to 19 and this sequence has been noted as a potential metal binding motif in S. acidocaldarius []. It is therefore possible that family members contain a C4 zinc finger. Short Name:  Spt4_arch
