bacterial-type RNA polymerase core promoter proximal region sequence-specific DNA binding transcription factor activity involved in positive regulation of transcription

id: GO:0001140
name: bacterial-type RNA polymerase core promoter proximal region sequence-specific DNA binding transcription factor activity involved in positive regulation of transcription
namespace: molecular_function
type: go
obsolete: False

Description: Interacting selectively and non-covalently with a sequence of DNA that is in cis with and relatively close to a core promoter for a bacterial-type RNA polymerase in order to modulate transcription by bacterial-type RNA polymerase. The transcription factor may or may not also interact selectively with a protein or macromolecular complex.
