Primer synthesis by a eukaryotic-like archaeal primase is independent of its Fe-S cluster

Primase is the specialised DNA-dependent RNA polymerase responsible for the initiation of DNA synthesis during DNA replication. Here the authors use a structural biology approach to identify the initiation site in the S. solfataricus PriSLX primase and to demonstrate that its Fe-S cluster is dispens...

Sumario:Primase is the specialised DNA-dependent RNA polymerase responsible for the initiation of DNA synthesis during DNA replication. Here the authors use a structural biology approach to identify the initiation site in the S. solfataricus PriSLX primase and to demonstrate that its Fe-S cluster is dispensable for primer synthesis.
