DNA primase is an enzyme involved in the replication of DNA and is a type of RNA polymerase. Primase catalyzes the synthesis of a short RNA (or DNA in...

helix. The preinitiation complex also loads α-primase and other DNA polymerases onto the DNA. After α-primase synthesizes the first primers, the primer-template...

creating what is known as the DNA replication fork. Following this fork, DNA primase and DNA polymerase begin to act in order to create a new complementary...

DnaG is a bacterial DNA primase and is encoded by the dnaG gene. The enzyme DnaG, and any other DNA primase, synthesizes short strands of RNA known as...

α-DNA primase complex) consists of four subunits: the catalytic subunit POLA1, the regulatory subunit POLA2, and the small and the large primase subunits...

helicase–primase complex (also helicase-primase, Hel/Prim, H-P or H/P) is a complex of enzymes including DNA helicase and DNA primase. A helicase-primase associated...

proteins including helicase, RFC, PCNA, gyrase/topoisomerase, SSB/RPA, primase, DNA polymerase III, RNAse H, and DNA ligase. For prokaryotes, each dividing...

different superfamily (InterPro: IPR043519). Primases generally don't fall into either category. Bacterial primases usually have the Toprim domain, and are...

inhibition of the viral helicase primase complex, encoded by the UL5 (helicase), UL8 (scaffold protein) and UL52 (primase) genes, which is essential for...
