2.7.7.102
Accepted name
DNA primase AEP
Reaction
(1) ssDNA + n NTP = ssDNA/pppN(pN)n-1 hybrid + (n-1) diphosphate;;(2) ssDNA + n dNTP = ssDNA/pppdN(pdN)n-1 hybrid + (n-1) diphosphate
Other name(s)
archaeo-eukaryotic primase, AEP, PrimPol
Systematic name
(deoxy)nucleotide 5′-triphosphate:single-stranded DNA (deoxy)nucleotidyltransferase (DNA or DNA-RNA hybrid synthesizing)
Comment
The enzyme, which is found in eukaryota and archaea, catalyses the synthesis of short RNA or DNA sequences which are used as primers for EC 2.7.7.7, DNA-directed DNA polymerase.
