Term Name:	transcription cis-regulatory region binding
Synonyms:	bacterial-type RNA polymerase regulatory region DNA binding, bacterial-type RNA polymerase transcription regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding, eubacterial-type RNA polymerase regulatory region DNA binding, eubacterial-type RNA polymerase regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding, regulatory region DNA binding, transcription regulatory region DNA binding, transcription regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding
Definition:	Binding to a specific sequence of DNA that is part of a regulatory region that controls transcription of that section of the DNA. The transcribed region might be described as a gene, cistron, or operon.
