Structure of the DnaG primase catalytic domain bound to ssDNA
Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 18193061
Function
[PRIM_ECOLI] DNA primase is the polymerase that synthesizes small RNA primers for the Okazaki fragments on both template strands at replication forks during chromosomal DNA synthesis.
About this Structure
3b39 is a 4 chain structure with sequence from Escherichia coli k-12. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA.
