GO term: protein binding transcription factor activity Help



Ontology: Molecular Function (GO:0000988)

Definition: Interacting selectively and non-covalently with any protein or protein complex (a complex of two or more proteins that may include other nonprotein molecules), in order to modulate transcription. A protein binding transcription factor may or may not also interact with the template nucleic acid (either DNA or RNA) as well.

Synonyms: transcription factor activity
