Abstract:
:Primase synthesizes decaribonucleotides for priming of lagging and possibly leading strand synthesis at a replication fork. The sites of initiation by purified mouse primase were shown to be highly specific within the SV40 origin of replication. This study further examines the role of the 27-bp inverted repeat in the origin for initiation. A site is observed on the L-strand template at nucleotide position (np) 22 positioned a similar distance from the 27-bp inverted repeat as sites previously reported on the E-strand. The initiations adjacent to the 27-bp repeat have a higher Km for rATP than other sites. A deletion within the inverted repeat eliminated initiation at sites proximal to the hairpin on both E and L strands but had no effect at more distant sites. A deletion mutant which left the inverted repeat intact but deleted the initiation sites at np 5210-5220 on the E-strand was not active as a template for proximal sites. These results indicate that primase has two modes of recognition, one that requires the SV40 inverted repeat structure and a specific sequence and another that requires sequence alone. Additional regions of the SV40 genome have also been examined and of approximately 2000 nucleotides of single stranded template examined, only one additional site was observed at np 2412 on the E-strand. This indicates that primase initiations are highly specific for the SV40 origin and their potential functional role is discussed.
