CC   -!- FUNCTION: DNA-dependent RNA polymerase catalyzes the transcription of
CC       DNA into RNA using the four ribonucleoside triphosphates as substrates.
CC       {ECO:0000250}.
CC   -!- CATALYTIC ACTIVITY:
CC       Reaction=a ribonucleoside 5'-triphosphate + RNA(n) = diphosphate +
CC         RNA(n+1); Xref=Rhea:RHEA:21248, Rhea:RHEA-COMP:14527, Rhea:RHEA-
CC         COMP:17342, ChEBI:CHEBI:33019, ChEBI:CHEBI:61557, ChEBI:CHEBI:140395;
CC         EC=2.7.7.6;
CC   -!- SUBUNIT: In plastids the minimal PEP RNA polymerase catalytic core is
CC       composed of four subunits: alpha, beta, beta', and beta''. When a
CC       (nuclear-encoded) sigma factor is associated with the core the
CC       holoenzyme is formed, which can initiate transcription (By similarity).
CC       {ECO:0000250}.
CC   -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Plastid, chloroplast.
CC   -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the RNA polymerase alpha chain family.
CC       {ECO:0000305}.
CC   -!- CAUTION: The C-terminal domain thought to be required for interaction
CC       with some regulatory factors is missing from this protein.
CC       {ECO:0000305}.
