FUNCTIONRNA polymerase that catalyzes the synthesis of short RNA molecules used as primers for DNA polymerase during DNA replication.
CATALYTIC ACTIVITY Reaction=ssDNA + n NTP = ssDNA/pppN(pN)n-1 hybrid + (n-1) diphosphate.; EC=2.7.7.101;
SUBUNITMonomer. Interacts with DnaB.
case <FTTag:zinc>
COFACTOR Name=Zn(2+); Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:29105; Note=Binds 1 zinc ion per monomer.;
DOMAINContains an N-terminal zinc-binding domain, a central core domain that contains the primase activity, and a C-terminal DnaB- binding domain.
end case
SIMILARITYBelongs to the DnaG primase family.
