Ontology: Molecular Function (GO:0003700)

Definition: Interacting selectively and non-covalently with a specific DNA sequence in order to modulate transcription. The transcription factor may or may not also interact selectively with a protein or macromolecular complex.

Synonyms: transcription factor activity

This table lists the methods used to annotate genes either directly to the term sequence-specific DNA binding transcription factor activity (76 genes) or to its variants containing one or more qualifiers (0 genes). Note that some genes may have been annotated by more than one method so the numbers in the table below may not add up to the totals given here.

Annotation Method	GO Term	# Yeast Genes Annotated
Manually curated (download data)	sequence-specific DNA binding transcription factor activity	32
High-throughput	none	none
