plastid single subunit type RNA polymerase activity
id: GO:0001066
name: plastid single subunit type RNA polymerase activity
namespace: molecular_function
type: go
obsolete: False
Description: Catalysis of the reaction: nucleoside triphosphate + RNA(n) = diphosphate + RNA(n+1). Utilizes a DNA template that contains a single subunit type plastid RNA polymerase specific promoter to direct initiation and catalyses DNA-template-directed extension of the 3'-end of an RNA strand by one nucleotide at a time. Can initiate a chain 'de novo'.
