This HMM hits a core region shared by multiple sigma factors, interchangeable subunits that complete the RNA polymerase holoenzyme and allow transcription to start. In E. coli K-12 alone, this HMM hits RpoD (sigma-70), RpoH (sigma-32), FliA (sigma-28), FecI (sigma-19), RpoS, and RpoE.

This model encompasses all varieties of the sigma-70 type sigma factors including the ECF subfamily. A number of sigma factors have names with a different number than 70 (i.e. sigma-38), but in fact, all except for the Sigma-54 family (TIGR02395) are included within this family. Several PFAM models hit segments of these sequences including Sigma-70 region 2 (PF04542) and Sigma-70, region 4 (PF04545), but not always above their respective trusted cutoffs.
