| UniProt Protein Function: | Facilitates transcription termination by a mechanism that involves Rho binding to the nascent RNA, activation of Rho's RNA-dependent ATPase activity, and release of the mRNA from the DNA template. RNA-dependent NTPase which utilizes all four ribonucleoside triphosphates as substrates. |
| UniProt Protein Details: | |
| NCBI Summary: | rho has been shown to be an essential gene (Das, 1976; Bubunenko, 2007). [More information is available at EcoGene: EG10845]. Rho is required for one of the two major types of termination of RNA transcription. [More information is available at EcoCyc: EG10845]. |
