The primase uses a phosphotransfer domain for the transfer coordination of metals, which makes it distinct from other polymerases. [4] The side subunits contain a NH 2 and COOH-terminal made of alpha helixes and beta sheets. [4] The NH 2 terminal interacts with a zinc binding domain and COOH-terminal region which interacts with DnaB-ID. [4]
The E. Coli DnaG primase is a 581 residue monomeric protein with three functional domains, according to proteolysis studies. There is an N-terminal Zinc-binding domain (residues 1–110) where a zinc ion is tetrahedrally coordinated between one histidine and three cysteine residues, which plays a role in recognizing sequence specific DNA binding sites.

This gene encodes the p180 catalytic subunit of DNA polymerase α-primase. Pol α has limited processivity and lacks 3′ exonuclease activity for proofreading errors. Thus it is not well suited to efficiently and accurately copy long templates (unlike Pol Delta and Epsilon). Instead it plays a more limited role in replication.
A 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 factor protein may also be present. [1] The complex is used by herpesviruses, in which it is responsible for lytic DNA virus replication.
Pritelivir is a member of the helicase-primase inhibitors (HPI), a novel class of direct-acting antiviral drugs acting specifically against HSV-1 and HSV-2. [ 14 ] [ 15 ] As the name suggests, the drugs act through inhibition of the viral helicase primase complex , encoded by the UL5 (helicase), UL8 (scaffold protein) and UL52 (primase) genes ...
This causes periodic breaks in the process of creating the lagging strand. The primase and polymerase move in the opposite direction of the fork, so the enzymes must repeatedly stop and start again while the DNA helicase breaks the strands apart. Once the fragments are made, DNA ligase connects them into a single, continuous strand. [3]
Magnesium acetate has been found to cause a conformational change in Escherichia coli enzyme Primase. In this experiment Mg(OAc) 2, MnCl 2, CaCl 2, NaOAc, LiCl, MgSO 4 and MgCl 2 were all compared to see what effect they had on the Escherichia coli enzyme Primase. The experimenters found that Mg(OAc) 2 caused the best conformational change.
