Researchers at Rockefeller showed that this process is mediated by two enzymes: telomerase and the CST–Polα/primase complex. Having determined how telomerase is recruited, scientists were left ...

For this reason, the lagging strand polymerase requires the action of a DNA primase enzyme before it can start each Okazaki fragment. The primase produces a very short RNA molecule (an RNA primer ...

Primase, eine an der DNA-Synthese (Replikation) beteiligte spezifische RNA-Polymerase, die die Synthese eines kurzen RNA-Abschnitts katalysiert, der komplementär zu einem der DNA-Matrizenstränge ist.

How would you identify the protein that serves as a connector between DNA helicase and pol-a/primase? A simple yet often effective approach is to find proteins that directly bind to both enzymes.
