QuickView for RNA polymerase (compound)


Name: DNA-Directed RNA Polymerases
Description: Enzymes that catalyze DNA template-directed extension of the 3'-end of an RNA strand one nucleotide at a time. They can initiate a chain de novo. In eukaryotes, three forms of the enzyme have been distinguished on the basis of sensitivity to alpha-amanitin, and the type of RNA synthesized. (From Enzyme Nomenclature, 1992).
Synonyms:
RNA Polymerase, DNA-Directed; DNA Directed RNA Polymerases; Polymerase, RNA; DNA-Directed RNA Polymerase; DNA Dependent RNA Polymerases; Polymerases, RNA; RNA Polymerases, DNA-Directed; DNA-Dependent RNA Polymerases; Polymerase, DNA-Directed RNA; DNA Directed RNA Polymerase.
