Prim2 - DNA primase, p58 subunit

Predicted to enable 4 iron, 4 sulfur cluster binding activity and DNA/RNA hybrid binding activity. Involved in DNA replication, synthesis of RNA primer. Part of alpha DNA polymerase:primase complex. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; genitourinary system; respiratory system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human PRIM2 (DNA primase subunit 2).
