RNA polymerase (RNAP, DNA primase, dnaG) catalyzes the addition of nucleotides to RNA during transcription.
DNA-dependent RNA polymerase catalyzes the transcription of RNA from a DNA template. The DNA-dependent eukaryote RNAP are divided to
RNAP I (or Pol I) which transcribes ribosomal RNA;
RNAP II (or Pol II) transcribes DNA and most snRNA and microRNA;
RNAP III (or Pol III) transcribes tRNA and 5S ribosomal RNA.
DNA primase (DNAP) is RNAP which catalyzes the synthesis of the RNA primer which complements an ssDNA template and initiates DNA synthesis.
dnaG is a bacterial primase.
