id: GO:0001072
name: RNA binding transcription antitermination factor activity
namespace: molecular_function
type: go
obsolete: False

Description: Binds to RNA, typically within the nascent RNA transcript, to promote readthrough of a transcription termination site and thus extending the length of the RNA transcript produced. Examples of antitermination factors which bind the nascent RNA include the lambda N protein and the HIV-1 tat protein.
