1. primase
   The enzyme that polymerizes nucleotide triphosphates to form oligoribonucleotides in a 5' to 3' direction. The enzyme synthesizes the RNA for RNA-DNA sequences that later become Okazaki fragments and also RNA primers for some types of phage using an sDNA template.

4. Primase
   `DNA primase` is an RNAP enzyme involved in the replication of DNA. Primase catalyzes the synthesis of a short RNA segment (called a primer) complementary to a ssDNA template. Primase is of key importance in DNA replication because no known DNA polymerases can initiate the synthesis of a DNA strand ...
