More DnaG is organized in three domains, the N-terminal zinc-binding domain (ZBD), the central RNA polymerase domain (RPD) and the C-terminal helicase-binding domain (HBD). The role of the ZBD is to recognize the priming site, which is 5'-C(A/T)G. The RPD carries the active site with three catalytic acidic residues that are exposed at a cleft in the center of the protein. This part of the proteins has structural similarity with the toprim fold, a region of about 100 amino acids found in topoisomerases. The HBD anchors the primase at the hexameric ring of the helicase. The latter interaction is particularly important as DnaG is activated about 5000fold when bound to DnaB. Within the replisome, two DnaG molecules cooperate, one molecule binding the template at the trinucleotide priming site and the other catalyzing primer synthesis Geobacillus stearothermophilus
