RNA polymerase ECF(extracytoplasmic function)-type sigma factor (sigma(V)); Sigma factors are initiation factors that promote the attachment of RNA polymerase to specific initiation sites and are then released. Positively regulates the expression of proteins involved in stress responses against bacitracin, paraquat and tellurite. Belongs to the sigma-70 factor family. ECF subfamily.

Negative regulator of the activity of sigma-M; Evidence 1a: Function experimentally demonstrated in the studied strain; Product type ph: phenotype.

RNA polymerase sigma-30 factor (sigma(H)); Sigma factors are initiation factors that promote the attachment of RNA polymerase to specific initiation sites and are then released. This sigma factor is involved in the transition to post- exponential phase in the beginning of sporulation. It is also required for transcription of several stationary phase genes.

RNA polymerase sigma factor; Sigma factors are initiation factors that promote the attachment of RNA polymerase to specific initiation sites and are then released. This sigma factor is involved in regulation of cell wall metabolism in response to heat stress. Acts by regulating the expression of genes such as bcrC, mreBH and lytE. Also plays a role in survival at low temperatures. Belongs to the sigma-70 factor family. SigI subfamily.

Undecaprenyl pyrophosphate phosphatase; Catalyzes the dephosphorylation of undecaprenyl diphosphate (UPP). Confers resistance to bacitracin; Belongs to the BcrC/YbjG family.

RNA polymerase sigma-54 factor (sigma-L); Sigma factors are initiation factors that promote the attachment of RNA polymerase to specific initiation sites and are then released. This sigma factor is responsible for the expression of the levanase operon. The open complex (sigma-54 and core RNA polymerase) serves as the receptor for receipt of the melting signal from the remotely bound activator protein LevR for the expression of the levanase operon.

RNA polymerase sigma-37 factor (sigma(B)); Sigma factors are initiation factors that promote the attachment of RNA polymerase to specific initiation sites and are then released. Sigma B is not essential for sporulation; rather it is required for maximal expression of ctc and csbA which are transcribed in the early stationary phase under conditions inimical to sporulation. May play a role in the ability of the bacterium to adapt to various stresses but is not essential for its survival under these conditions. Positively regulates expression of its own operon; Belongs to the sigma-70 fac [...]

RNA polymerase sigma-28 factor (sigma-D); Sigma factors are initiation factors that promote the attachment of RNA polymerase to specific initiation sites and are then released. This alternative sigma factor is required for the transcription of the flagellin and motility genes as well as for wild- type chemotaxis.

RNA polymerase (alpha subunit); DNA-dependent RNA polymerase catalyzes the transcription of DNA into RNA using the four ribonucleoside triphosphates as substrates.
