Nascent RNA length dictates opposing effects of NusA on antitermination
The NusA protein is a universally conserved bacterial transcription elongation factor that binds RNA polymerase (RNAP). When functioning independently, NusA enhances intrinsic termination. Paradoxically, NusA stimulates the function of the N and Q antiterminator proteins of bacteriophage λ. The mech...
