Summary: Enables several functions, including RNA polymerase I general transcription initiation factor binding activity; RNA polymerase core enzyme binding activity; and nucleic acid binding activity. Contributes to single-stranded RNA binding activity. Involved in several processes, including positive regulation of autophagy; regulation of nucleobase-containing compound metabolic process; and spliceosomal complex assembly. Located in nucleus. Part of DSIF complex. Colocalizes with rDNA heterochromatin. Orthologous to human SUPT5H (SPT5 homolog, DSIF elongation factor subunit). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

Title: Evidence that Moderate Eviction of Spt5 and Promotion of Error-Free Transcriptional Bypass by Rad26 Facilitates Transcription Coupled Nucleotide Excision Repair.
All together, our results reveal an important role of Rpb5 in the transition from initiation to elongation mediated by the RNA polymerase II, by modulating the Spt5 association, and the backtracking activity of the enzyme.

These findings attribute a new function to a domain of Spt4/5 that associates directly with RNAPII, making significant steps towards elucidating the mechanism behind transcriptional control by Spt4/5.
Title: The yeast transcription elongation factor Spt4/5 is a sequence-specific RNA binding protein.

Preferred Names: transcription elongation factor SPT5

NP_013703.1

Spt4p/5p (DSIF) transcription elongation factor complex subunit; the Spt4/5 complex binds to ssRNA in a sequence-specific manner, and in concert with RNAP I and II has multiple roles regulating transcriptional elongation, RNA processing, quality control, and transcription-coupled repair; interacts with DNA upstream of RNAPII and the non-template strand of the transcription bubble; Spt5p is the only transcription elongation factor conserved in all domains of life
