DESCRIPTION

Also known as RHO_ECOLI, rho, nitA, psuA, rnsC, sbaA, tsu. 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. Homohexamer. The homohexamer assembles into an open ring structure.
