comment

Note that this term is in the subset of terms that should not be used for direct gene product annotation. This term does not provide specificity with respect to the type of nucleic acid binding, e.g. RNA or DNA. Please use a child term that provides that specificity or, if no appropriate child term exists, please request a new term. Direct annotations to this term may be amended during annotation QC.
