NTP + 7 dNTP Sulfolobus islandicus primases are specialized DNA-dependent RNA polymerases that synthesize a short oligoribonucleotide complementary to single-stranded template DNA. In the context of cellular DNA replication, primases are indispensable since DNA polymerases are not able to start DNA polymerization de novo N(pdN)7 + 7 diphosphate

ATP + 7 dNTP enzyme synthesizes short (8 nt-long) primers in the presence of single-stranded M13 DNA. The 12-bases-long substrate with the sequence 5'-CTTCTTCTGTGC-3' represents the minimal substrate which supports synthesis of the full-length primer. The base 3' to the central GTG motif is critical for primer synthesis and that the bases 5' of the GTG determine the length of the primer or run-off product but do not appear to be important for the efficiency of primer synthesis Sulfolobus islandicus A(pdN)7 + 7 diphosphate

NTP + 7 dNTP the enzyme synthesizes a mixed primer consisting of a single ribonucleotide at the 5' end followed by seven deoxynucleotides. Ribonucleotides and deoxynucleotides are strictly required at the respective positions within the primer. The primase can initiate primer synthesis with an ATP regardless of the base 5' of the GTG motif and then proceed to synthesize a primer made up of dNTPs. The primase activity is highly sequence-specific and requires the trinucleotide motif GTG in the template. Primer synthesis starts outside of the recognition motif, immediately 5' to the recognition motif Sulfolobus islandicus N(pdN)7 + 7 diphosphate
