id: GO:0000985
name: bacterial-type RNA polymerase core promoter sequence-specific DNA binding
namespace: molecular_function
type: go
obsolete: False

Description: Interacting selectively and non-covalently with a specific DNA sequence in a bacterial-type RNA polymerase core promoter, the region composed of the transcription start site and binding sites for transcription factors of the basal transcription machinery, in order to modulate transcription. The transcription factor may or may not also interact selectively with a protein or macromolecular complex.
